MUSIC!

In music we sing and dance.  It's fun. Sometimes we play night at the museum and just have some fun!!! We sometimes practice the recorders. It was so awesome!!! We also play "who has my bone?" You can watch the piano guy and there's lots of videos.  Thank you!!! :)

Fireflies Bring Thoughts of Summer...

We have finally finished our integrated art and writing project about fireflies. The results have been fantastic; stunning paintings of warm summer nights watching fireflies accompanied by lovely free verse poems. The students did a great job of thinking like "poets" and were able to experiment with interesting word choice and creating a sense of flow in their writing. If you're at Linwood School, please check out our "Fireflies"!

Wear Pink in Support of Anti-Bullying

On Wednesday, April 9th, the students of room 4 elected to wear a pink item of clothing to show that we are not bystanders, we will stand up to bullying. We have read many books that deal with the subject of bullying and have had several meaningful class discussions about the topic. In order to express how we feel, the students of room 4 made a video that is our message to bystanders, who we feel have the potential to turn things around. To do our part we must stand up and speak out. We have used the song "Brave" by Sara Bareilles as our inspiration, as we found her lyrics supported the things we wanted to say. We hope that you enjoy the video!
