=** __Welcome to the 4th grade Page__ **= =South Dakota Scrapbook=
 * One of the main components for 4th grade Social Studies is learning about South Dakota history. The 4th grade students at Pettigrew will be completing a South Dakota scrapbook. The scrapbook will include pages such as South Dakota Native Americans, South Dakota Explorers, The State Capital, South Dakota Tourist Attractions, Historical Events in South Dakota, Famous South Dakotas, and South Dakota Symbols. We are hoping to wrap this project up on April 16th. A majority of this project will be done in school but students may need to do additional research and editing at home.
