Welcome!    

Welcome to fourth grade. Fourth grade is an important developmental year. Your 4th grader's cognitive and creative skills will be stimulated to grow socially and academically.  Fourth grade math will be complicated and fractional.  They will learn to subtract fractions and recognize equivalent and non-equivalent fractions.  They will, also, learn how to analyze, collect and interpret data.  Moreover, fourth grade will also teach your child how to convert and calculate different units of measurement.  Fourth grade writing will involve more story based writing.  Students will be expected to use dialogues and narratives.  In reading, students will be introduced to a variety of characters and begin to understand their expressions through traditional tales and fables.  Poetry will also make an appearance.  Vocabulary will be expanded on and students will explore more prefixes and suffixes.  They will learn new words and better understand how to use words they already know.
