What a great first day in 4th grade! We are starting each day with a morning meeting to foster community and relationships. First one was a success! #MadeinR7

Students did an activity in which they were challenged to run as fast as they can and all finish at the same time. It's not possible, they quickly realized, and that's okay! The same is true with how we all learn, and that understanding of our peers is vital. #MadeinR7 #HHEPride

Teamwork makes the dream work in 4th grade!

Kids worked hard to try to crack the lockbox codes!

Gone Wild! The fourth graders are creating AMAZING habitats that their animals and plants will live in. They are able to explain the adaptations of the animals and plants they picked and how they survive. 🌵🙉#knockingmysocksoff #sciencerocks
