Great example of how Mathematicians in 4F are looking for similarities and differences between strategies that could be used to add multi-digit numbers! #LPSHawks Ms. Fitzgerald

4F scientists learned that we can determine whether a dinosaur was running or walking by looking at their fossilized prints. Today, we tried to outrun a dinosaur! We quickly learned that the dinos would have caught up to us very quickly!! 🏃‍♀️😬

4F scientists had a rich discussion about whether people should be allowed in places where evidence of the past (like fossils) might be found. We noticed a balance between the need for scientific exploration and for regular people like us to get to experience the natural world!

Thank you @k5socialstudies for starting our day with a land acknowledgement. It made for a meaningful start to our day!

Today, 4F cohort B writers are celebrating our work as realistic fiction writers by reading each other’s work and leaving compliments! ✏️

Thank you to all who helped!

I LOVE it when #lpsHAWKS staff jump in and learn in music class! Ms. Fitzgerald joined in and learned all 3 barred instrument parts! Then, Elizabeth Yellis crashed music class and joined in on the barred instruments, too! 👏👏 #sofun Jackie Daley Dr. Rory O'Connor Dr. Julie Hackett

Teachers, to start off 2022, I'm offering two free 30-minute virtual appearances. I can talk about writing, share a preview of I Survived in progress, or whatever you would like. No limit to the number of students, can do grades 3-8. RT to enter. I will notify winners 1/10.

Way to go, 4F! 🙌🏻

So grateful to be part of such a great team that makes me think critically about our fourth grade work!

First in-person all-school All HAWKS meeting in quite some time! 👏🏻

So thankful for Sarah Carter and her AMAZING resources!! 👏🏻👏🏻

Andddddddd…solved! Sarah Carter

Twinning again! 💁🏻‍♀️ (much more likely to occur on spirit days!) Angela Lee Carpenter

4F scientists met up to present posters that describe our latest investigation, and to notice what others did to make their thinking clear!

Excitement is mounting!

4F has read (over!) 50 books already! We celebrated our first “Tower Triumph” with a cozy reading party!! (I chose my shirt to coordinate with the event 🥳)

Thank you to the LPS librarians who are sending their copies of these books for our upcoming 4F optional book clubs! 👏🏻📚

If you know the TCRWP 4th grade curriculum, you know what a ✨moment✨ it was when a #LPSHawks student said “I think Sistine is the key to Rob’s suitcase.”LPS Literacy K-5

HAWKS Nest Alert—> Our February edition is ready‼️ This month, Maria sat down to learn a bit more about our very own Ms. Fitzgerald, Grace interviewed Corey, and Malina won! 🤩
