In class, we are learning to become "Grammar Ninjas" by applying our proof-reading marks to revise and edit silly sentences that I (Mrs. Stines) writes. We have almost reached our "Ninja" status because we are now finding grammatical errors in all kinds of things that we are reading! One student in our class heard about a new invention called a Grammar Correcting Pen on the news and shared it with the class. This pen vibrates when a student writes a grammatical error on their paper. Oh, how easy it would be to become a "Grammar Ninja" if we all had these pens!

Welcome to Mrs. Stines' classroom blog! In our class, we "Learn Like A Champion" EVERYDAY! A champion learner is prepared, challenges themselves, always tries their best, and most importantly learns from their mistakes and has FUN! Just like the Notre Dame Football team, we tap our mission statement that reads "Learn Like a Champion" every time we enter and leave our classroom to remind ourselves we are CHAMPIONS in all aspects of our lives. Come take a peak into our funky, fourth grade world!
That is awesome. I love the class blog. Keep up the great work in 4th grade. One of my favorite tests of all. Does spelling matter?
