Grade 1B Enjoyed Catholic Schools’ Week

faculty — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 00:04:10 +0000

It was a fun filled learning week for the children in grade 1B. They wore their crazy hats in class on Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday were buddy days. They got to know their 4th grade buddies in Miss McCoog’s class. The older children read to them and some of the first graders got to show off their reading skills for their buddies. I was impressed with the conversations and work that was occurring. They really liked Pajama Day! Everyone was happy with the books they bought at the Book Fair. Thursday was Sports’ Day and Pizza Lunch! I was not at the Volleyball Game , but I heard it was a lot of fun!!! The week ended with Mass and the school picture . All in all, it lived up to the theme of Catholic Schools’ Week-Faith, Service and academic excellence!!

4th grade Science- Bird Beak Buffet

faculty — Sat, 15 Oct 2011 20:30:29 +0000

[[Show as slideshow]]This week in science, 4th grade learned about adaptions. They did an activity that involved thinking about how a bird’s beak influences its ability to eat. Using binder clips, spoons, clothespins, and scissors as different types of “beaks”, they found out which was better for picking up the “food” (rubber bands, paperclips, macaroni, and toothpicks). Check out the students in action as they raced to pick up as much food as possible with their beak!

Science- Candy cells!

When learning about the building blocks of life, 4th grade discussed the similarities and differences in animal and plant cells. To make this idea tasty, they used jello, lifesavers, tic tacs, and cups to represent different parts of the cell!

Check out the Photo Gallery to see what they created!
