4th Grade

Students will read to learn concepts in their Grammar Island workbooks for level 4 sentence analysis. We will practice how to take notes on the key ideas to remember. 

Our theme this quarter is self discovery of our gifts and how we can use our gifted minds in all aspects of life. We will explore the traits of giftedness through a book study titled The Intenso Family Goes to a New School. We will create art projects and writing activities with the book. Students will also participate in problem solving escape room activities in class as a team to prepare for our annual field trip to the Escape Game.
