Five For Friday

Can you believe it I am posting a Five for Friday!  Yay!

Last Friday our school held a Reading Rocks fundraiser.  Each grade level had a jar labeled with some crazy thing we agreed to do in front of the entire school.  Students brought in change to fill up the jars.  Once the jars were filled we were held to our crazy event on stage.  My fourth grade team chose to dress up like the 80's and sing to "Girls Just Want to Have Fun".  We sang into our hairbrushes and had a blast!

Here is a sneak peak to an upcoming post :)  We completed the static electricity experiment from my Forces and Motion Interactive Notebook product.  My students had so much fun, especially the girls with their new hairstyles! 

This week we worked on character traits while reading The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind.  Excellent book by the way for several CCS!  Thanks to Pinterest, I had my students create these character trait craftivites for William (the main character).  On the front they wrote four character traits and then on the back they wrote evidence from the text to support their trait.  They determined William was intelligent, clever, helpful, and many other wonderful fourth grade traits!

I started a NEW MATH LINKY this week!  I hope you will link up next week!  Your post can be anything related to math :)

Here is a sneak peak to my post for this coming Monday.

Can you guess the skill we were working on? :)

I also wanted to share how excited I am that my hubby and I are going to see Kirk Cameron tonight for a marriage conference.  I am excited for our date night and grateful for my friend who is willing to watch all three of my boys while my hubby and I enjoy a night just about us!  I am also going to run my first Color Me Rad tomorrow morning!  Please pray I survive and don't freeze to death!
