Putting Our DEAD Words to Rest

Fourth grade authors enjoyed a treat of tombstone cookies which they decorated for a DEAD word burial. Students have been learning about using synonyms for dead or overused, non-descriptive words in their writing. Words such as like, walk, nice, fun, run, and said were put to rest!

Sensational Symphony

Students in Mrs. Donnelly and Mrs. Jenkins' class enjoyed a field trip this week when fourth and fifth graders from Beauclerc were invited to the beautiful Times Union Center for the Performing Arts to listen to the Jacksonville Symphony. The concert began with the Star Spangled Banner and included pieces from American composers. Thank you, Ms. Laymon for organizing the trip.

Fourth Graders Teach Parents

Each student used part of a "delicious meal" to tell about an element of a story and they shared some pieces of student writing. They were definitely the best part of parent night!
