We had a fun day in the fourth grade classroom! One of our students brought in an apple pie to celebrate PI day during lunch. Thanks P! We greatly enjoyed it.
We also had another small treat as our own chefs prepared ambrosia (the food of the gods). They will perfect the reciepe for our future dinner guests.
We are continuing our study on Classical Greece. Students are learning of education, history, and focusing in on mythology.
Today we learned about the city state Sparta and created our own Greek shields. Students designed their own symbols and some included secret messages using their knowledge of the Greek Alphabet. Some of the students researched ancient designs for their creations, while others added a modern day twist. Nice job kids.
Next week our focus will switch back to research of greek heroes, gods, and monsters.
