Types of Clouds

In Science, we are learning about weather.  We have discussed four types of clouds:  Cumulus, Stratus, Cirrus and Cumulonimbus.  Today, we used a cloud viewer to identify other types of clouds, too!  Soon we will be creating our very own weather instruments!

First Week of School

We are having a great year in fourth grade!  The first week we began our Place Value unit in math.  We built a model of 1,000,000!  Yes, a million!!!

Also, we got to use place value charts and number disks to show one place is 10 times what it represents in the place to its right.  For example, 3 tens is 10 times more than 3 ones.

In Science we created parachutes and tested which lengths of string worked best.

We are rocking in Fourth Grade!  :)
