4th graders used string to model fractions in an egg carton. We were able to determine what fractions were equal to 8 eggs, and 3 eggs using our new skills!
The 4/5/6 kids learned about the Ruffed Grouse today through the VT Wildlife’s Scat & Track program, so we headed out on an adventure to look for signs of the Ruffed Grouse and White Footed Mouse in the wooded areas near the school. We discovered scat, tracks, bones, nests, and evidence of the grouse and other animals. Some students were even lucky enough to spot a White Footed Mouse!
