Last week in 4th grade....What fun we had! Mary Poppins blew in on the West Wind (yes west, not east this time) for a spectacular tea party (or so I heard), kites were made and flown, and we painted our names in Chinese characters. All the while soaking up fractions, IEW skills and more! These kids are so much fun and so smart! Keep up the great work at home. (P.S. I will try to post more pictures of class activities to the Class Facebook page as I can't fit them all in here on the blog.)
