Science race!

Last week we had a science race with marbles. We used inclined plains to do the race. We used all shapes and sizes to do the race with the inclined plains marbles. We also did a challenge where we had to see whose marble went the farthest Luke S.,Carter, and Makenna's team won and Asher's team got second. The marble went the farther when we made the inclined plains higher.

Happy Valentine's Day

Valentine boxes

Over the week we made Valentine boxes. Ms Mathes rules's are your name needs to be see able. And the opening needs to be big enough for valentines and candy. Everybody has a very creative valentine box. Some boxes are a  Racoon holding a heart, a vending machine, and lots more! Mine is the Racoon holding a heart.  Taylor's is a mail box!!!

Force test

In class we have been learning about force. But today we did a test on force. It was about gravity, friction, simple machines,pushing and pulling. We have study hard enough to get most of the questions right about it. The test was mostly word problems and about the fulcrum.

Roller coasters

Today we built roller coasters and the marble is the cart. We had to make it over a hill then 2 hills and then in a loop. It was hard but we got it done. We learned the steeper that you make it the faster it goes. The two forces that are at work are Gravity and Friction. By Lucas and Jonas





School mail

In school we can write school mail in our free time. First we get the letter sheet and the school directory. The school directory is so you know everyone's name and class code in the school even teachers. Here's a picture of the letter sheet. Before we write we have to write the name and class code of the person we are writing to.Then we wright to the person we we want to wright to. Then we sign our name and put the letter in the mailbox outside of our classroom. 4th grade mail club students pick up and deliver mail on Wednesdays. By: Hank and Logan
