Fourth Grade

Fourth grade is a transitional year. The students are energetic and eager to learn and please. At this point in their education, they move from the lower elementary to the upper elementary. They begin to think and act more independently, but still need the guidance of parents and teachers. The character traits and work habits they form this year continue to develop well into the middle school years. For this reason, the goal of fourth grade is to provide the students in my class with a learning experience and environment that is centered on Christ and His Word.
