The 4th grade Guidance classes are wrapping up a book study with a fun activity that was taken directly from the book itself. We read The Hundred Dresses written by Eleanor Estes and enjoyed learning about Courtesy, Compassion and showing Caring and Kindness.
In the book, the student take part in a drawing/design contest where the girls design dresses and the boys design motorboats. We decided that creating our own designs and holding a contest would be a fun way to celebrate the end of our book study.
Mrs. Ohnmeiss, our resident Art teacher, will be our judge. :) Winners will be chosen from each of the 4th grade classes. Good luck to all!!!!

In Library class the students have been learning about digital citizenship and what it means to be a responsible citizen online.  We have been learning about what sites are just right for them and being able to tell the differences between the sites that are not right for them.  We have been discussing how to create powerful passwords and how to make sure those passwords are secure.  Some grades have been learning about what cyberbullying is and what it looks like.  Kindergarten has been making predictions to stories along with identifying the beginning, middle, end of a story and the purpose of the author and illustrators.  I hope everyone has a Happy Holidays!
