FUSE

While learning about Early European Settlements in the New World, 4th grade FUSE students visited England, France, and Spain using their Barefoot Atlas and Google Earth apps.  By visiting these areas, students were able to learn more about each country that began settling the North American continent, and what life is like for them today.

 

4th grade FUSE students participated in a fun number cube activity as they practiced their weekly Spelling words!  By identifying their six most challenging words, students were able to narrow their practice to where improvement was needed most.

 

Dr. Eve Rice and several APSU Nursing students visited Mrs. Meek’s 4th grade Wellness class. The APSU students taught a lesson on being a Healthy Fit Kid! Students enjoyed participating in stretching activities, dancing & a push up & sit up competition with the winners getting a basketball & football. All students were also given bottles of water.
