Eli's Discovery Day

Eli's mom came to Discovery Day to help us make gooey goo! Everyone had a great time and I'm sure you all enjoyed the bag of goo that went home. The kids were also given a copy of the recipe if your family would like to make more!

Mele is not too sure about hand mixing the goo.

Jonathan, Conner and Michaela demonstrate the goo factor!

Brayden has his yellow goo going.

Teig, Rylee, Carter, Eli, Shentara, and Zac earned the cleanest table award.

Abi, Braxton, and Jordan are mixing up their batches.

Thomas and Jordan slime themselves.

Twisty turny fun!

Gavin's Discovery Day

Long, long ago (sometime in March), Gavin's mom came in to teach the kids about staying healthy. She led the class in some excellent cardiovascular, stretching, and strengthening exercises. She also talked to the class about healthy eating and provided some great snacks. (Due to her great influence, I even stopped drinking pop for a month!) Here's some of our adventures!

HALLOWEEN!

Halloween in fourth grade is so much fun! We love to dress up for the school parade and eat way too much sugar at our party. Click on the photos for a closer look!

What a good looking class!

What a scary looking class!

Four of your favorite fourth grade teachers. (No jokes about us being witches, please!)

Making words from "Happy Halloween"

Dramatic ladies: Shentara, Katie, Shirsten, Amber, and Robyn

Mega Mummy: Nicholas, Weston, Jordan, Maddie, and Abi

Despite the sugar rush, the boys are thinking hard to create new words.

Gee, which ones had the most sugar?

Thank you to everyone who helped at the party and donated items! It was a great day!

Amber's Discovery Day

Amber's mom came by to teach everyone how to sew a pumpkin. The kids did a great job!

The kids each recieved a bag with supplies.

Cameron and Jonathan help each other stuff their pumpkins.

Rylee's Discovery Day

Rylee's parents came in to explain why buildings have fire sprinklers and how they worked.

It takes a lot of heat to set off the sprinklers.

Each one has a sensor.

Success!

Rylee and Dad
