On Wednesday, 4th grade science had “shark day”.
The 4th graders got an opportunity to learn about sharks and how shark’s use their senses. 4th graders were able to explore the shark's senses with a Webquest, watch some cool shark videos, and they got to color some shark pictures to round the day off.
