It is Grinch Week in fourth grade. When one typically thinks about the Grinch, they are reminded of the mean, cuddly as a cactus ... bad banana with a greasy, black peel ... green guy ... (for the musical version, Grinch).
In fourth grade, it is an opportunity to harness all that energy our students don't know what to do with during this time of the year ... an opportunity to review the many focus skills and learning from the first part of the year: character traits, compare and contrast, subjects and predicates, cause and effect, author's purpose ... and an opportunity to enjoy our students and have some fun ... who knew kids and fun better than Dr. Seuss himself?!
Stay tuned to more pictures and updates of all things "Grinch-related" later this week!
(Note: Special thanks and appreciation to our own personal shopper, Mrs. Arens, who outfitted our teaching team. As green in the color assigned to fourth grade in the elementary school, we are thrilled with another addition to our green collection!)
