Fossil Finds

Students made their own fossils this week.  We learned that fossils form in sedimentary rock. Students used clay, Plaster of Paris and seashells to create their models.

Fun In First Grade

We had a very enjoyable and productive visit with our first grade buddies on Friday.  After a nice walk down the street, the fourth graders met their buddies and participated in a variety of friendship activities with the younger students.  We are looking forward to our return visit in the spring.

Fourth Grade Fitness Fun

The students enjoyed their afternoon at Gillette Stadium.  After enjoying lunch in the stands, the students were invited down on the field to exercise.  We were then joined by Revolution players Chris Tierney and Brad Knighton.  They spoke to the students about living a healthy lifestyle that includes exercise and eating healthy.

Science in Action - Stream Tables

The weather last week provided a wonderful opportunity for us to take our investigations outside.  Students used the stream table models to test how flood waters and slope affect erosion and deposition.
