Field Trip to District Court to Watch a Naturalization Ceremony
All of the Fourthies will be headed downtown to the District Court Building to watch a Naturalization Ceremony and visit with the Honorable Judge Lauck on Wednesday, April 17, from 9am to 12:30 pm. This is a rare experience and priviledge to be invited to particitpate in such an iconic American ceremony and it is a wonderful addition to our Immigration Living History Project. Please make sure your daughter has a hearty breakfast and a lunch packed with a beverage, as we will not be back to school in time to eat at the dining hall. We will picnic in the classroom when we arrive back at school. (This is NOT our Living History Immigration Day at School, which will be in May)
A Peek across the Green

Students in the Fourth Grade will be having three 45 minute sessions with Mrs. Sterling to discuss and share information about upcoming Fifth Grade. They will go on a mini tour of the Middle School, practice opening Master Locks, take a look inside lockers, discuss organization techniques and many other wonderful and exciting things about Fifth Grade. Each class will be split in half, so that the girls will have greater opportunities to talk and have their questions answered. The second
half of the class will explore robotics with Mrs. Hamilton-Dixon and Ms. Adkins for three sessions and then the half classes will switch. On May 8th, the Middle School has invited the Fourthies for their first official tour of the Middle School. They will be shadowing a fifth grade student and sharing in the fun of going to capsule classes and meeting the fifth grade faculty. This will take place from 9 until 1 p.m. Please try not to schedule any appointments on this day.
Literature

The girls are learning about the subtle and not so subtle differences between depression era community farm life and city life. Mary Alice has come from a school that housed a thousand students and is now in a school with fewer than fifty. Many of the students live on farms and must forego school during the harvest season. Halloween shenanigans, radio shows, an outdoor privy, and being "way down yonder" are all a part of this city girl's new life in the country.
Mathematics
We will be completing the last few exercises in our decimals unit and will be ready for review next
week. Students are ordering, adding and subtracting decimals. We will practice and fine tune this week.
History 4 Fourthies
Students continue to watch Carrie's War, a child's eye view of England during the War in the early 40's and the adventure of a lifetime that she and her brother will never forget. They are staying with a family until the end of the war when they can be reunited with their family, much like Mary Alice.
