Our fourth graders visited the Westfield African American exhibit at our Memorial Library. Each student went on a "treasure hunt" to search for answers to questions the teachers prepared on a "pre-visit." We learned so much about the famous people who have visited Westfield, including Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Jackie Robinson, and the history of places that we pass by every day (such as the slave auction site downtown).
What a fun Science and Math Night we had on Thursday. So many teachers and parents were helping us learn about rockets, polymers, probability, and. so much more. We think we even landed a spaceship on the moon that night!
We finally got everyone to join the children singing at our Valentine's Day Sing-Along!
