100th Day Crowns
By Eliza And Eric

 On the 100th day of school, our class made 1oo day crowns. Our crowns had to have 100 objects of anything on it. It could be 100 smiley faces,100 stars,or even 100 stick figures doing funny dances! We each got to make our own crowns and decorated it in our own way. For example, Scarlett did 100 stars, and Brady did 100 dots.It was a ton of fun.

Designing A Greenhouse & A Visit From Mr. Whalen!

Designing A Greenhouse & A Visit From Mr. Whalen!
By Citlalli, Sophia & Ms. Cosel
 4th graders were asked to help design a greenhouse for the Muddy Brook campus last month. They spent several days scouting locations, discussing the design process and working on developing sketches. Mr. Whalen who works with Sheffield Plastics volunteered to help us with this project and came into 4th grade last week to tell us more about what he does and how plastic can be used!
 **
Last week in 4C Mr Whalen came and showed us plastic material from sheffield plastics. He let us touch materials that he brought. The materials were really cool. There was a coke machine cover and a bullet proof plastic square. He told us about the business and its history. He told us that he also makes Mc donalds signs! We really enjoyed his visit.

 This Week In 4C! 
By Sophia and Citlalli

The school week was very fun.  We had a guest speaker his name was Mr. Lamb.  Mr. Lamb showed us books and pictures but that's not all he came for. He showed us how to write and he showed some of his favorite books. He gave us a book called Arteo. He also showed us pictures of a book called IF TREES COULD TALK. They were pictures that the artist drew. We are very happy that he came to talk about publishing books. He also said we could make our own book to publish our own story! We are very happy he came.
