Fourth grade students are doing more work on the internet as their reading and searching skills improve. Projects are designed to develop and enhance web skills as well as content and literacy. Our goal is to provide students with the experience and background knowledge to make appropriate and responsible choices when using the internet while expanding their educational resources and opportunities.
While fourth graders are working on real world experiments with plants in their classrooms, we search the web for background and general knowledge on plants.
