This week, we began to build knowledge on the American Revolution. Students were given a list of words/phrases and worked together to create possible groupings. What relationship might some of these terms have? I loved seeing what each group came up with! #WeAreD97

First week back from winter break. 2024! 🤍🔔 #WeAreD97 #LongfellowBears

In reading, we have been learning all about text structures in nonfiction texts. We learned how signal words/phrases can help us determine how authors are organizing the text. #WeAreD97 #LongfellowBears

We 🤍 nonfiction! We started our nonfiction unit this week. We are first tackling how to read nonfiction. Of course, we have to focus on text features and realize how they are helpful! #LongfellowBears #WeAreD97

how can we use energy from our d-cell battery to light a lightbulb? how do we know energy is present despite not “seeing” energy? students investigated and tried different ways to make this possible. so cool to see the different ways they came up with! #WeAreD97 #LongfellowBears

In science, we have been discussing the scientific method. Today, we used all 6 steps to answer our question “how many drops of water can a penny hold?” Students were definitely shocked to find out it was more than they hypothesized! #LongfellowBears #WeAreD97 📚🤍🧬

4th grade #LongfellowBears “I AM” 🤍 #WeAreD97

Before starting our first reading unit, we talked about different types of genres that are available to us. We discussed which ones are our favorites! Working with groups, we sorted different types of books by identifying which genre they belong to. #WeAreD97 #LongfellowBears 📚
