Spring break is almost over! Please remember that we return on Tuesday!

The fourth quarter has arrived! It is hard to believe that in just two months, the inaugural school year for Archway Classical Academy Arete will end. There is still much work to be done here in fourth grade.

This quarter is full of fun and exciting material. In history, we will complete our unit on the American Revolution. After that, is a unit on the creation of the United States Constitution, followed by a unit on early American Presidents.

In science, students will learn about the circulatory system and respiratory system. There will be many exciting experiments and activities, including a pig heart dissection! Students still take the science AIMS in April and the year will end with science projects!

In Language Arts, students will complete Carry on Mr. Bowditch and move into the The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. I invite you to come in and watch a discussion. In grammar, students will extend their understanding of sentence diagramming. Students will write pen pal letters to other fourth graders attending Archway Classical Academy Chandler.

In math students will master decimals, multiplying and dividing them. Then, they will move into volume, weight, congruent shapes, and data analysis.


There is a lot to accomplish! This promises to be an exciting quarter.
