4Ry is a classroom,but that does not mean we don't have cool things! Like (spoiler alert) giant peppers, a bobble headed hulk,and one giant lazy frog. ne of are interesting things is are giant peppers.Good behaviour it fills bad behaviour it empties. pride and joy when filled  crying in agony when emptied (yea crying!)A cool guy in 4Ry is baby bobble head hulk. You know it's him when  you   see his giant tippy  head. He is given to the group with best transitions and that's something to work on cause he's awesome! Are last guy is Inspector frog. He is given to the peep with the neatest desk ,plus the peep gets a prize! This giant frog looks like a hairy lime which sounds gross but it's not. Classrooms don't have to be boring,special things make each day more interesting!              Oct 31, 2016 10:09:24 AM.jpgOct 31, 2016 10:06:42 AM.jpg

Student Post: Math Games!

Oct 28, 2016 10:31:07 AM.jpgDo you ever wonder how we get through math without dropping dead of boredom?

Here’s the answer- we play Math games!!

The games are always related to the lesson that day. For example,if we have a lesson on geometry, we will have a game involving polygons. Sometimes we will have the same math game for a 2-3 days. The actual games are on the  author’s studio which is under our Reach for the Stars! Poster. If we have iPads they are at the back table.I took a survey 4Ry’s favorite math games and a lot of people liked the same math games. 2 people liked Beeline, 11 people liked Yahtzee and 8 people didn’t participate in the survey. I made a  pie chart  on the data from the survey(above). It was super duper fun making it! Math games are very important because without them, we would die of boredom. But seriously, they save us from going insane.

Student Post: More Chairs...

Have you ever sat in a uncomfortable chair? I ‘sint it awful when a chair is molded not even CLOSE to your butt!!! Well,if you are at pine hill  you are in luck.cause 4Ry has some of the biggest chair verieties on the hill.Now lets talk chairs:COMFORT CLASSES bulky bean bags twisty rolly poly chairs and things to share tip1:always sit in the hard chair first because then it feels like torture and after you are done doing that, once you get into a beanbag chair itil feel like heven on earth.Tip2.If you are feeling energenic you could try the stool, depending on who you are,it could help you lern.
Comfort meets fashion design,as modern as the chairs look,no need to worry.they are comfortable.For example,the stool  uses your mussules in such a way that you don’t get tierd from sitting.So,without chairs ,your life would be less comfortable,and less fasionable!

Student Post: Chairs!

Oct 25, 2016 2:38:42 PM.jpg4ry has some new chairs that are liked a lot! The new seats in 4ry are everywhere and come in many shapes and sizes. The first new chair that is favored is what I like to call the (drumroll please) turny chair!!?!!! ( and yes that is a question mark) They are elusive and there is only one per table group and they turn!  They are plastic and you can sit in them backwards.These chairs are good for learning because you can still focus on the speaker while you use all your unwanted energy. And the next favored seat is (another drumroll please) regular chair!!! (and yes this sounds bad but they are good) they are green and have bouncy backs. And surprisingly you can sit in them backwards. These chairs are less elusive everybody gets one. They are amazingly comfy and are still liked. The last great chair of 4ry is the mighty bean bag chair! This chair is also green and you can also sit in them backwards. They are located in the library and in the corner. All these chairs are good for learning so come to 4ry to try these great chairs out!Oct 31, 2016 9:45:05 AM.jpg

Student Post: Plant Unit

                               Plant unit in science                                    

Did you know we couldn’t breath without plant. Here in 4RY were learning about plants. There are lots of seeds in the world.Sunflower seeds are very common also the eighth tallest in the world. In our class did a germination inquiry project. The name was “what does a plant need to germinate” we already knew but we had some ideas. Some of the ideas were soda instead of water, and different soils. We learned there are lots of important parts of a flower. One of the most important parts is the anther the anther makes the pollen. Photosynthesis is the process which plants use energy from sunlight to produce sugar. This is important because then the plant would not have food. By doing this unit in science we learned what plants need to germinate. Image result for sunflowers

Student Post: Plant Parts

Plant parts



What has 4 different parts with 4 different functions. Plants of course. Now let’s see what their special functions do.First up the roots. The roots are the part of the plant that seeks out nutrients for the plant.  Next up the stem. The stem is a part that holds up both the flower  and the leaves to the sun. Plus the stem also takes all the nutrients the roots collected and transports it to the plant.And Then the leaves. The leaves go through a process called photosynthesis this process both helps us and the plant how you ask read this to find out. Okay here is  what they need 1.sunlight  2.water And finally 3.carbon dioxide. And before you ask this is how it affects us. They make OXYGEN as a waste. But we help to. We give them the carbon dioxide as a waste. And finally the flower.The flower reproduces the seeds by using a process called pollination. First the flower makes nectar to attract bees or butterflies. Next while the pollinators get the nectar for themselves the pollen sticks to their bodies. Finally they find a different flower and the pollen sticks to that plant and makes new seeds that regrow then the process repeats.Without their functions plants might not survive.
