Genius Hour

We have started Genius Hour! We each choose a topic to study for Genius Hour. It is like I. P.s except we have more freedom. For I.P.s we had to pick a topic that connected to something we studied. These topics can be anything we want to learn about, or test, or change, or make. Some of the topics are making gummies and candy molds, learning about book cover art and redesigning book covers, researching ghosts and movies, learning about bonsai trees, studying Alcatraz, and learning computer coding. Mercy is studying movies and he has learned how to make sound effects. Diego is studying gummies and has learned that Goldbears use to be called Dancing Bears. Henry is exploring cooking and Noa is learning how to make ice cream. Stay tuned for more information about Genius Hour. Diego and Mercy.  

Maypole 2018

Every year the 4th graders learn to do the maypole. Traditionally, the maypole is a sign of spring. People did the maypole to celebrate spring but we do it to celebrate Earth day. The 4th graders perform the dance right before Pachanga. Sometimes we do it for the whole school but this year we were at the Fore River Fields with our buddies. The maypole is a fun dance and we really like it. By Yacob and Elizabeth.
