Today was our last day of rotations in 4th grade, and Mrs. Throndson’s two classes celebrated with a GLOW DAY! ✨💛 Students enjoyed glowing games, activities, music, and lots of fun while celebrating all of their hard work this year. It was the perfect way to end rotations and make some bright memories together! These students truly SHINED today! 🌟

4th Grade students in Mrs. Conary's class have been learning about everything “Living Things”. From chicks, to food webs and chains, animal adaptations, to predators vs prey, and so much more! Check out two of the activities they did below: Eat or Be Eaten: A game where students had to connect cards to see who could make the longest food chain. So much fun was had and competitive competition was had! Beak Adaptations: Students used a variety of utensils such as tooth picks, chopsticks, a spoon, and tweezers to pick up different objects that represented bird food! Each utensil mimicked a different type of beak that is commonly found in birds!

Trevyn Smith, owner of Cake My Day, visited Bake Me Happy to talk about starting her own cupcake business. She shared her knowledge and experience with students.

Cooking Around the World finished their unit about Asia: China, Japan, and India. The students found these cultures so interesting. Here are a couple of pictures of their Asian labs. One group made crab rangoon, and two other groups made stir-fry dishes.

Advanced Foods (during their grilling unit) had a "smash burger competition." A huge thank you to our two judges: David Pitz and Jeremiah Cantu. It is a tough job, but someone has to do it! All of the groups' smash burgers were delicious, according to the judges, and two groups tied for first place. Many of Advanced Foods' students had never grilled before, so this was a great learning experience.

Foods II Classes (two sections) covered a beef unit. They made juicy slider burgers, and it was the first time many of them had grilled before. Mrs. Schmitt wrote a grant last year to purchase the Blackstone grill and this year wrote a beef grant to purchase the meat.

The Advanced Foods class is finishing strong, with 24 students learning to grill fruits, vegetables, steak, chicken, and hamburgers. The students have learned about the purpose of marinating meat, different cuts of meat, rubs and spices, and how to check for doneness. The students drew cards to find out what category they would be grilling, and the rest was up to them. Mrs. Schmitt heard one student say, "This is the best day of school. To be outside grilling, this is amazing! It was a beautiful day to be outside for a little while.
