We managed to keep the 4th grade tradition of Winn Dixie Day in the 4th grade!  On Friday we played some virtual games and made a virtual scrapbook.  One of the cool things we got to see was the author’s first five drafts of the book, including her personal notes about the changes she made.  This class has several students who like to write and draw so it was neat for them to see how a novel evolves.  REMOTE LEARNERS: Please be on time for school in the morning and remember that Wednesday is Chapel FIRST at 8:45 and then join our class.  IN PERSON LEARNERS: It is your responsibility to follow the assignments that are posted on Google Classroom for ALL students.
