To kick off the week, we gathered as a school to celebrate Earth Day. Fourth grade students used recycled plastic water bottles to plant herbs. They each picked a type of herb and made a self-watering planter. We look forward to watching our plants grow! In science, we began working on graphs for our science fair project. Some students used their computers while other made them by hand. They each chose a different piece of data to plot on their graph. In preparation for our field trip on Monday, we concluded the week by making casseroles for Saint John's Hospice.
