Welcome to 4 th Grade!

In 4th grade, students become adept problem solvers, equipped with essential academic and social skills. This year's theme is perseverance, focusing on navigating relationships, tackling complex math problems, and enhancing critical thinking. Students will learn to listen attentively, organize materials, and work effectively in groups. Homework serves multiple purposes: practicing skills, preparing for upcoming lessons, and facilitating communication with parents. As we develop strong work habits, students will also learn to balance assignments, projects, and other activities to ensure success in middle school.

  2. Our Theme: Perseverance Fourth graders are problem solvers! As upper elementary students, 4th graders have a set of academic and social skills that lend themselves to complex problem solving This year we will work towards perseverance in…. • Navigating relationships • Solving high level multi step math problems • Depth in thinking across subject areas • Interpreting texts

  3. Rising Expectations in Fourth Grade Learning Routines Quickly and Learning Independence • Taking responsibility for listening to directions and following through • Managing a new homework agenda • Keeping your materials organized and well maintained • Working effectively in a group

  4. Homework In fourth grade, homework has several purposes. • Practicing a skill or strategy learned at school • Math assignments, independent reading, reading response and writing work are examples of this type of assignment • Previewing or preparing information and assignments for instruction the next day • Reading informational articles and stories, note taking, and homework from the writing workshop are of examples of this type of assignment • Communicating with parents about what work is being done at school, and how your child understands this work • Looking at your child’s assignments, and noticing how prepared he or she is to complete assignments, is a great way to informally assess how well your child is doing in school. • Developing strong work and organization habits • This is especially relevant in fourth grade as students prepare for an increased workload in middle school and learn to balance assignments, projects, and afterschool activities. In fourth grade, we will learn to plan and complete project work in social studies.
