Fourth Grade celebrated with candy corn decimal comparisons. 

Ms. Cheyenne's 4th-grade class wrapped up their study of The Gilded Age, a period known for America's Second Industrial Revolution and rapid economic growth, with a creative twist! Students researched influential figures from the era and showcased their learning through unique "briefcase projects." Each briefcase highlighted a key individual's contributions to industry, innovation, and progress, helping students connect history to real-world change in a hands-on, memorable way. Great job, 4th graders, for bringing history to life!

On the 17th, Ms. Cheyenne's class finished up their chapter on plants by making a flower and labeling it's parts. When the class was being interviewed, they said that doing this project helped them further understand what they learned. They recall the parts of the flower: the roots, stem, leaves, and the flower. The roots soak up the nutrients from the soil, the leaves catch sunlight and water, the stem transports these nutrients to the flower, and finally the flower helps the species reproduce through pollinators. 

Ms. Cheyenne's class is currently studying the wild west, the Oregon Trail, cowboys, and the mistreatment of Native Americans. They are currently working on fractions for math, verbs in grammar, and are reading the Hatchet by Gary Paulsen.
