Dearest 4Fives,
Where are you?  I mean, we know that it is summer break, but we thought that we had an understanding about our little blog.  We need to keep posting!  It’s fun!
You could write about anything we did this year, things that you want to do next year, or things that you are learning about [...]

Hello everybody!
This past Monday, the 5th graders from the 4Fives graduated from PS 58.  We had a really nice ceremony in the auditorium, and then after that, we went to the gym for our Prom!!!  It was so much fun.  The whole gym was set up and decorated for us, there was a DJ, and [...]

Good day to all you good people!
You will never guess what we did on Friday.  The 4Fives met Jackson’s father, Graham Nash, along with his mom Susan, brother William, and Uncle Bill. Graham Nash is a famous musician.  

Did you know that he started to play music at the age of 13?  I think that [...]

Good afternoon, everyone!
Today I am going to tell you about the incredible project that we have been working on. As you all know, the 4Fives started a blog this year.  One of the things that we really wanted to do for our blog was to design our own logo.
For the past few months, we have [...]

Good morning everyone!
Yesterday, our internet was down, so we didn’t get a chance to post about the most amazing Arthur Benjamin.  Arthur Benjamin is a Mathemagican!  He does the sickest math tricks, and all in his head.
Our homie, SFJ, used his SuperForest press pass and saw Mr. Benjamin perform last weekend.








After the show, SFJ took [...]

Hello everybody in the world!!!
Today, on the 8th of June, we had an expert and a web genius in our classroom. SuperForester Julius paid us a surprise visit from The Netherlands! He taught us how to say “yes”, “no”,  ”please”, and “thank you” in Dutch.
Here is what we learned:
Yes is Ja, (sounds like “yah”).
 No is [...]

UPDATE…
Things have been a bit crazy as of late.  The 4Fives have been exercising extreme patience lately, as they have had several different substitute teachers over the course of the past week.  Due to the upheaval, the blog has been a bit neglected.
Don’t fret!  We hope to have things back up and running this week, [...]

Good morning, everyone!

My name is Ricardo, and I will be writing this week's Music Monday post.  I have been thinking about the music of Leona Lewis for awhile now, and I wanted to share some information about her with you.

Leona Lewis is a British singer.  She knew that she wanted to be a singer when she was only 5 years old!  Her parents helped her with this dream by putting her in a school that helped her improve her singing voice.  And, when she was older,she won the British show "The X-Factor", which is like American Idol.

I like Leona Lewis because her songs have a nice message, and her voice shows a lot of expression.  Also, she tries to do things that are important in the world.  She is a vegetarian, and she won't advertise for companies if they sell fur.  This shows me that she is a beautiful person on the inside just as much as she is on the outside.



I hope that you have a great day!

Love,

Ricardo
