Our Class Mission Statement!  Students brainstormed answers to the following questions:

• Why did we come to fourth grade?
• What do we want to learn about this year?
• How should our classmates and classroom look and sound?
• How do we want to make each other feel?

Their answers were heartfelt and powerful.  Our Mission Statement is a summary of student responses, and to seal the deal, we signed our names promising to do our best in completing our mission.
