Mrs. Kruckenberg’s 5th grade class had a fantastic time at Glacial Park today. We learned about all the glacial formations. Walked to the top of a kame, learned about how the glaciers moved and how it formed our land, used the new observation deck on the bog and marsh. We also learned about predator and prey. Examined scat and saw a snake. Thank you McHenry County Conservation District for this great field study! Glacial Park has so much more to see. Great family trip for a weekend or summer.

Mrs. Hay’s 4th Grade class read two books in March. The girls read How to Steal a Dog by Barbara O’Connor. The boys read Ralph S. Mouse by Beverly Cleary. For an end-of-the-book project, the two groups decided to each write a play based on one chapter for their book. Each group wrote the script, built props, rehearsed, and performed the plays for a limited audience. The students worked very well together. There are many talented and creative 4th graders at Jefferson!!
