Sra. Nelly, who was visiting from Mexico, shared the story "El niño que tocó las estrellas" with Sra. Bartholomew’s 4th grade class. It is the true story of José Hernández Moreno, the son of Mexican immigrants that worked in fields and how he became an astronaut for NASA.

Taxation Without Representation

Submitted by arlene.haymond on

My class learned about how unfair taxation without representation was for the colonists. Although the colonists all started out with 10 pieces of candy, by the time King Sam kept taxing them for ridiculous things, (Oh, you have a pet? That will cost you. You have blue eyes? Pay up!), his tax collectors had just about emptied most of their pockets. Poor colonists. But the King made out great!

Mayflower Challenge

Submitted by arlene.haymond on
Fourth graders in Mrs. Boyer's class participated in the Mayflower STEM challenge.  They created mini Mayflowers out of foil, an index card, popsicle stick, toothpicks, and tape.  They tested their designs to see which boat could hold the most "pilgrims" while floating.
