Fourth Grade: Up For a Challenge
Fourth Graders are confident, independent, and eager to take on new challenges. They have transitioned fully out of early childhood and are ready to dive into a vibrant, inspiring curriculum.
We study the gods of Norse mythology, who are full of vigor and strength that mirror the students’ vitality. Students learn about zoology in life sciences, fractions in mathematics, and vocabulary and grammar in language arts. We focus on sharpening observation and focusing the will, as students consider their place in the world, both socially and geographically.
Learn how diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice are woven into our curriculum.
