After Ss picked up their bag of supplies this week we spent most of our Zoom time making Red Riding Hood's basket. We shortened math, science, and reading but everyone agreed we needed to work with our hands. We then shared and reflected on @Seesaw #plainstigers

First time using Mindset Mathematics and the kids love it. They asked for additional copies of the I Spy 1/2 to do at home. Thanks @math_rickard for the book! #plainstigers @joboaler

Combining math and science in measuring the temperature of water to determine the brightness of glow sticks #plainstigers

Football day is always fun before the Super Bowl! From games in math to following directions on making a paper football in reading. We ended the day building uprights. #plainstigers #tlap

We had so much fun the last two days teaching our book buddies from @stanaPES class how to code using @Ozobot #plainstigers

Dino Week Day 4 - we used @AdobeSpark video to make advertisements. Explored the gift shops during math and dug through dinosaur poop to review science and social studies concepts #plainstigers #tlap

Dino Day 3 - we created our own dinosaurs this morning. Then the Ss LOVED skyping with @PTPritchard and had so many questions for him. We ended the day with a special visitor. #plainstigers #tlap

We took a break from creating our Dinosaur Park to create I Spy ornaments. They can look for Rudolph's nose, a jingle bell, among other holiday things. #plainstigers

Dino Week Day 1 - we researched dinosaurs in @EpicKidsBooks began our dinosaur park project and explored amber jello fossils #plainstigers #tlap

Thanks @BeauDickenson for creating a breakout that ties to China as we meet our #GRAFront buddies. @bcovteaches #plainstigers #GRA19

Construction day is always a hit!! Especially with our field trip to @RandysHardware #plainstigers #tlap

When your @JMUCoE practicum student loves potatoes we spend her last day doing potato activities all day. #plainstigers

Another great lesson creating adaptations for bugs at @AmazementSquare #plainstigers

We are having so much fun being mad scientists on our field trip to @AmazementSquare @RockingSciStone #plainstigers

So much fun watching our reader's theaters we have been working on all week then creating our settings with @DoInkTweets #plainstigers

So much fun doing our Punkin' Chunkin' #STEM activity #plainstigers

So much fun exploring ancient China through kites, the Great Wall, and their writing. #plainstigers

My @JMUCoE led a great problem and solution lesson using stop motion. The teamwork throughout was great to see! #plainstigers

The @breakoutEDU platform makes it so easy to create and do digital breakouts. The Ss are working together on a map skills assessment. #plainstigers

So much fun at the BHS homecoming parade with the Plains SCA! @grade4withLohr @TeacherGin2 @HollyBalice @PrincipalKap #plainstigers
