Welcome to 4th Grade Science
​SAVE THE PLANET
One Child at a time
We all must become stewards of the Earth
The Earth belongs to us all, it is our responsibility to take care of it. You may think that working together to save the Earth and its resouces is ridiculous, but wouldn't you want your children to have a usable planet? If we are not good stewards of our planet, our children and grandchildren will not have a beautiful healthy place to live. Your next question should be: WHAT CAN I DO TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE?
The thirsty earth soaks up the rain,
And drinks, and gapes for drink again.
The plants suck in the earth and are
With constant drinking fresh and fair.
–Abraham Cowley, English poet (1618–67)
Classroom Rules
MAKE NO PROBLEM
For yourself, your classmates, teachers, or your parents. If you choose to make a problem, please be prepared to accept the consequences for your actions. Arrive to class promptly, prepared, and polite.
This will be exciting and challenging year for each student. Students will create a collaborative, inquiry-based classroom, that encourages active engagement in questioning, planning, and conducting investigations, collaborating to analyze data, and communicating findings to others. I expect all class and homework assignments turned in as agreed and outstanding class, hall transition, and cafe' behavior. I thank my parent partners in advance for their support in developing world class learners.
