Red Ribbon Week, Halloween in Mrs. Olsen's 4th grade class, and the 4th grade soda team! 🎈🎃🥤




















4th grade students in Mrs. Wolff's classroom conducted a science investigation to learn about the relationship between force and motion!



Today, Mrs. DeKeyser’s students put on their architect hats to explore how different shapes can be combined to build creative structures for their mini dinosaurs. Working together and using a variety of materials, they designed and constructed unique dino habitats!








Mrs. Brice’s kindergarten class is exploring pushes and pulls in science! Students worked with partners to test how using more or less force changes the movement of a ping pong ball.



Mr. Ast's high school students came to visit Mrs. DeKeyser's kindergarten class today! Kindergarteners listened to the story being read to them and enjoyed the visit very much! They can't wait to see them again soon!

Miss Shea's 4th grade students were super excited to present their castles that they have been working on for the last 3 weeks. These castles represented the medieval times. Students used recycled materials and got creative to come up with these masterpieces! #tongienation #usd464
