September 2010 Start of a new school year

Hello! As you may know, I teach in the afternoons at Mast Landing School and share a room with Ms. Guernsey who is there in the morning. This year, I teach Language Arts to our shared homeroom and I teach afternoon units. All of my afternoon units are science units, and we have started the year off with a fabulous unit that includes an extended field trip to Ferry Beach Ecology School for all of the fourth graders in the school! This blog primarily will be about the science units.
