4th Grade - Loquacious, someone who talks too much, was today's vocabulary work. Rachel Carson, the author who was influential in getting DDT removed from usage, was today's ponderer. Students drew a picture called Surprise in the Middle for the warm up activity. The affective lesson focused on tolerance. The rest of the morning was spent researching for the Wonder of the World project.
