Class Info

Our primary goal in fourth grade is to instill in our students a lifelong love of learning. We want them to become independent, critical thinkers and to explore their roles as part of our classroom community. We want to share with them the beauty of our Catholic Faith and the love and mercy of our Lord.

We will engage our students in many open ended projects that will allow for individual differences and learning styles. Our focus will be on the four "r's"...Reading, Writing, Arithmetic and Reasoning.
