Ms. Studebaker’s fourth grade class is finishing up the month of June strong as the students have learned a variety of topics in reading, math, science, and social studies.
The students have read Ray Bradbury’s Martian Chronicles and have studied the new genre related to this science fiction novel. Also, they are working diligently on distinguishing a main idea versus supporting facts.
In math, the children are working with units of measure, data collection along with graphs, and working on fifth grade entry math topics such as areas, perimeters, volumes, and other standard measurements.
The human body systems has been a big science topic this month. The students understand the nervous system more in depth now by analyzing medical drawings that have been of great help in this science endeavor.
What about social studies? The children have been studying African Kingdoms, more specifically working with Ghana-related projects. Also, Ms. Studebaker’s students worked with timelines in relation to Medieval African studies. Finally, the curriculum will be finished off with Asian studies and touching basis upon American Revolution leading into the following year, 5th grade.
Thank you Ms. Studebaker for a wonderful 4th grade year!
