Today we completed some fun April Fool's activities, including a "Speed Test." We read some homophone jokes and completed April Fool's stories.
We took our test over Mangrove Wilderness on pages 629-645 in our Storytown book. The mangrove is a very special tree that grows in salt water.
Here's a brief video about the mangrove tree:

March Book-it forms (Optional) should be turned in prior to Spring Break.
Our next Social Studies unit will be over the Midwest, so students can get a head start on learning these states, capitals, and the names of the Great Lakes.
States and Capitals Puzzle
Tour the States Video (This is a huge classroom favorite)

Field Trip slips were sent home for the Earth Day Movie.
T-Shirt order forms were sent home last week for the after school "Walk for a Cure" event in May.
Fourth Graders will have "Pioneer Day" the Wednesday that we return from break. This is an educational in-school "field trip" at no cost (partially funded by the PTO -- Thank you, PTO!).
