Allstar Writing Marathon

The Allstars had a pretty exhausting week! We had three cumulative CBA's that took most of our time. To continue with our STAAR preparations (only 6 more school days), we had a Writing Marathon today. All we did today was write and share. Every hour, on the hour, we did a fun writing activity. I think the favorite was the "light up transition words" in the dark. Sorry no pics of this one. I think it's pretty clear...the Allstars really do enjoy writing! Adding pajamas, stuffed animals, and snacks to the equation was the icing on the cake!

Texas Independence Day

Today we celebrated everything Texas and wore our Texas best from colonial Texas to present day. According to our Allstars, we live in the best state ever!!!!!

Writing Camp

We love to write in 4th grade! We spent our day of Writing Camp rotating through classes taught by each 4th grade teacher. Each class focused on a skill to improve our writing. The STAAR is just around the corner!!

Got Talent!

Congratulations to Jordan, Sami, and Kora for a job well done in our PTA talent show!!

Career Day

Wow! We had a melting pot of careers on Career Day! I can't wait to hear about all the fabulous things our Allstars do when they grow up!

A forensic anthropologist! Go Sami!

Our very own singer and actress. We hope to see Jordan on the big screen someday!

Sami's dad had us all engaged in his software engineering and robot design career.

Mr. Adams came in to talk about dentistry.

Kenzie's dad shared with us a day in the life of a ferrier and horse trainer.

Heather's dad shared the exciting life of a fireman.

How heavy is that gear?

Heather's mom talked to us about her career in fitness, modeling, and acting.

Kora's dad has us all excited about wind turbines and wind as a renewable resource.

Thank you to all of the parents that took time out of their day to come present and relate how what we are learning directly relates to our Allstars' future!
