4th Grade Chapel

This week, the 4^th grade class was in charge of chapel.  We did a play based on the parable of the sower and the seed. Everyone got a chance to be involved.  Some read, some acted like birds, rocks, seeds, or weeds.  The whole school loved it and we had a blast.

Hot Air Balloons! 2013

 

 The hot air balloon project we do in science class is dangerously cool and AWESOME! On Wednesday, we took our time and constructed tissue paper hot air balloons.  This morning we launched them! In order to give them the most space, we launched them from the baseball diamond.  We use a camp stove with a long chimney.  The team holds the bottom opening of their balloon over the chimney, lets the hot air fill the insides, counts to five and LAUNCH!  Everyone cheers as the balloons rises low, high, really high, or not at all.  This year one balloon went higher and farther than any other balloon ever it may still be up there! Two others burnt up into flames before they launched (first time that ever happened too - cool!)
