Fourth grade is a fun year for students. In History class, the students learn the geography of the state of California, the Missions and the gold rush.
In math, students learn multi-step multiplication and division, as well as fractions, decimals and percentages.
In Reading and English, students read and write stories, personal narratives, informative reports and poetry. The children enjoy practicing their oral presentation skills as they work on volume, tone of voice, and animation.
In Science the fourth graders love learning all about the environment - what it is, and how to take better care of it. They also learn about rapid and slow changes to Earth, such as volcanoes, earthquakes, and erosion; this is always a favorite unit! Students participate in science labs to further explore these topics.
In Religion, students enjoy learning about Jesus.
