The fourth grade is an exciting time as students move from the Primary School to the Middle School. In addition to staying at school until 4:00 p.m., students encounter many other changes. They learn to read a textbook and take notes, compute with fractions and decimals and do long division, and write a multi-paragraph essay. They also receive their first gym uniform and a gym locker, and they change in the locker room for the first time.
The fourth grade goes on many exciting field trips including the Natural History Museum and the all-Middle-School orienteering field trip. During their studies of early man, they conduct an archaeological dig.
Each student learns to take responsibility for his or her own learning. Lessons in fourth grade go beyond the academic realm as students learn about the HEART program which helps students grow socially and emotionally as well as intellectually. Students in fourth grade build on the strong foundation that they have constructed in Primary School to become independent learners.
