Fourth grade was very excited to leave for their field trip to Waterloo Village! They went on Tuesday May 20, 2025. Waterloo Village is a fun and exciting place where 4th graders can learn about how the Lenape Native Americans lived. They have been learning about how they survived in the wild. They did stuff like braid rope and crush dried corn kernels.

The whole 4th grade is very excited for Model UN Day on March 28, 2025. Each student has a different country to learn about and represent. Model United Nation Day is where students research about their country to create a project, and show all the issues about the country they are representing. Together they will be put in small groups to discuss ways to solve the issues in their country they are representing. Ms. MacLeod, Mrs. Rentas’s student teacher has a friend who runs Model UN at William Paterson University is hosting Model UN. After they all discuss some solution to solve the problem, the students will vote on whose solution is the best.

Dental Visit!
Fourth Grade recently had a Dental Visit! Dr. Shah is a dentist in Pequannock that came to SJG to teach many classes about cleaning teeth. Dr. Shah did not only teach students about cleaning teeth but also taught them how to take care of your oral hygiene. He also taught us not to drink too much alcohol and not smoking and vaping.
