MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL
Check out how busy 4th grade has been!
Last week students were making the parts of the brain out of clay and labeling them. They are learning about how the brain works and why it is so important to protect our brain from concussions. This past week they learned what part of the brain controls which sense by various experiments. This week they will be learning about the brain in action (memory and reaction time).
Sincerely,
Mrs. Bombien
Robinwood Principal
