4th Grade - The word of the day was Harsh. Harsh means unpleasant to the senses; unpleasant conditions and sounds like Marsh. Our pilgrim today was Abraham Lincoln. While there are many stories about Abraham Lincoln, one that is little known is about a letter a little girl wrote to him. During the 1860 campaign, a little girl wrote Mr. Lincoln a letter suggesting he grow a beard. From that time on, every picture of President Lincoln shows him sporting a beard. The warm-up activity was a Plexer puzzle. Plexers are common words or phrases put into picture form that students have to decipher. Students then took an inventory to determine their style of learning. Presentations were then given and fellow students voted in order to determine if enough evidence was given in order to send a rescue team after the missing family.
5th Grade - These students had a brief class due to the Science Fair. They were able to present the information they learned about their missing families. After a brief celebration, they said their good-byes and left.
