Mrs. Benton is on her computer showing the class a game. She's the quarterback and she has to send it to the receiver. Everyone's cheering for her. The mouse is broken though. If it keeps that up, she'll have to buy a new computer.

A Moment From Our Week

Pep Rally

Our class went to the Pep Rally.  Dustin Hood was there.  The guys from WABB and all the St. Paul's players were there.  The pep rally was on Quigley Field and 3rd and 4th graders got to go.  We cheered for our team!  It was awesome!

A Moment From Our Week

Testing Magnets

This week we tested things to see if they were magnetic.  We tested nails, screws, rubber bands, copper, cardboard, foam, paper clips, string, different rocks, and pieces of screen.  The class took magnets and put them on the objects.  We found out that the paper clips, the nails, the screws, the screen, and only one of the type of the rocks stuck to the magnet.  Everything else didn't stick.  The things that stuck were magnetic.  Everything else wasn't.  That's how we got our results for this 4th grade experiment.

A Moment From Our Week

When we went to the Exploreum for a field trip it twas very interesting to see.  The main part was about kangaroos.  We watched a Imax movie about Australia.  It was very cool to watch.  After that we saw real kangaroos.  They were hopping around their cage.  It was very cool to see them hop around the cage.  This field trip was very interesting to go to see all these things.
