FGA News Launch (Student Entry)

The fourth graders are having an election, and we've created a news program to follow it! We're called FGA (Fourth Grade Adventurers) News, but it's still in development. The election is on November 5th and only fourth graders can vote (The fifth graders also have an election, but we're not covering that). Well, that's all for now, but remember: This is Fourth Grade Adventurers: Where the adventure begins!

Here's our network's official logo!

Creating Campaign Posters About Our Values

Last Friday, we were delighted to welcome so many families into our classroom for our first Family Friday! As part of our election study, we looked at campaign posters from past presidential campaigns and the ways those posters showed what candidates valued. Then, we selected the values that were most important to us. We created posters showcasing those values, which we revealed through the symbols, colors and slogans we put on our posters.

Here are some of our finished posters! If your poster is not here, it might be because it has your last name on the front of it! We're not posting last names on our blog! To see any poster larger, just click on it!
