READ-IN DAY! Started the day with hot chocolate, donuts, and winter concerts. Then read in our forts and listened to read alouds. Such a wonderful day! #haycocktradition https://t.co/tu83B7UpXb

We started #FirstChapterFriday today with one of my favorites… Cheese by Sarah Weeks! Oggie Cooder is a charving master from Wawatosa, WI. A TV show looking for unusual talents comes to town … does his charving set him apart from the competition? #love4thgrade #hayfam

This week we learned more characteristics of numbers. We used tiles to help help us determine factors of numbers and prime numbers! Look at these mathematicians! @haycockcougar #hayfam #primeorcomposite

4th grade had the opportunity to listen to a WW2 Veteran speak about his experience aboard the S.S. Leopoldville on Christmas Eve 1944. For his acts of bravery that night he received a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star of Valor. Thank you Mr. Plotkin for sharing your story with us!

[Ms. McDonald's Class @mcdsclass]

Not quite the same seems to be the way things are these days. But dressing up for storybook character day for school made things a little closer to normal. #teacherlife

@Monken5thgrade Love this idea! Thanks for sharing!

[Ms. McDonald's Class @mcdsclass]

@MsLenowicz3rd @PearDeck I also love the timer feature on the response slides! Totally keeps the kids and I accountable!
