Move-Up Day

Today our fourth graders had a chance to get a sneak peek of fifth grade. 
 First, they met up with a fifth grade buddy in the hallway.
Then they had a chance to practice opening up a locker.
 They visited Mrs. Lurz classroom and learned about their summer reading packet.
They visited Mrs. Kimball and found out about the summer math requirements.
 Once the kids were back downstairs in fourth grade, they seemed much more confident about going 'upstairs' to fifth grade.
