We are currently learning about the West Region of our country and will be working on social studies' projects for the remainder of the year. We are studying perpendicular and parallel lines as well as area and perimeter in math these days and are learning how to write persuasively. Our Journeys story has introduced students to Cesar Chavez and all of his work with helping migrant workers receive fair wages and treatment. It was an inspiring story for the students. Please tell me how you feel about heading to fifth grade.

This summer I went to Water Country. I also went swimming in a huge lake. I wanted to go on vacation to Honduras. I was very sad because my puppy got sick and died.

I am so sorry Alexsa about your puppy:( I love my dog and that must have been really hard. The other stuff you did over the summer seems really cool!

i'm a little scared about going to fifth grade because of mcas and it's going to be my last year at mcCarthy and i really like this school and i'm going to miss all my teachers because they taught me so mush and i'm kind of happy because summer is coming and there will be no more homework and no more test or school work I bet in fifth grade the homework will be much harder and the test will be hard to but i'm really going to miss my teachers.
