Hi everyone,
We had a great morning in grade 4! After our meditation, we started our Poetry unit. We did a fun little quiz to see what the kids already knew or thought they knew about poetry. Then we talked about the five elements of poetry and wrote a hilarious acrostic poem together. Later, during our Science period, the kids brought up and shared their inventions with the class and then had someone test it out so they could write testimonials for their boards. I have also written a testimonial for each of you so please copy and paste it from the google doc I shared with you. I have also sent you the pictures from below in case you want to print them out for your board.
Idiom of the Day:
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush!
