Hello Parents of Flama,

I have enjoyed teaching, sharing and creating a small state project with 4th grade this past month. Both 4th grade classes have learned a little bit about a different state in the United States.

On the West coast, California ( my home state) and on the East coast, New York. They learned about the important history, culture and identity of each state including sports, food, nature and music. Both classes learned a song that represented and was inspired from New York and or California which are sung by famous American artists from those states. Enjoy the performances below!
