Fourth grade students study Nebraska history in Social Studies. On March 1, 1867, Nebraska became the 37th state. We celebrated Nebraska Statehood on March 1, 2024, by baking bread, making butter, building a covered wagon, and playing string games. The students had lots of fun learning with hands on activities. Fourth Grade teachers are: Mrs. Bauman, Mrs. Di Giacomo, Mr. Gibson, and Mr. Balm.











To celebrate the end if the ELA Geology Unit, Mrs. Di Giacomo’s student each got a geode that they broke open to see what was inside. The students loved it and were excited to see what their geodes looked like inside.
