Monday, March 9

Today we introduced several new and exciting projects and activities for the last nine weeks.  They all focus on a study of Indiana.

  • Ag Day Field trip: Monday, March 16th Did you know Indiana's top five agricultural products are corn for grain, soybeans, hogs, dairy products, and chicken eggs. Corn and soybeans are Indiana's most valuable farm products and Indiana is a leading producer among the states. We will learn more about Indiana's agriculture during this exciting adventure.

  • Wonder Indiana Research Project: Students are bringing home an overview of this top rated state wide project.  Please review the overview with them.  Then sign and return the parent acknowledgment form. Click here for link to Form
  • Young Hoosier Book Awards: Our 4th grade will be participating in the Young Hoosier Book Award program this year. They will be among hundreds of Hoosier students who will honor their favorite books with this prestigious award.  To participate we will be reading the books from the nominated lists.  If you have a digital reading device that you would like students to use for reading, or if you are just planning on stopping by the book store, these are great books to purchase! Click here for the reading list.
  • INDY 500 Field Trip: Another exciting Indiana adventure that we did not have a chance to talk about is a Field Trip to the Indianapolis Speedway in May.  More details will be coming soon. 
Homework tonight is to review this information with parents and get the needed signatures.
