Fourth Grade


(9 years)

The Fourth Graders day is traditionally organized to include science, social studies, reading, math, art, music, and physical education, yet we continue to stress a hands-on, concrete approach, individual observation and discovery, and the use of original or personally created materials. The Encore Math as well as the NYSED common core program for math are used in the classroom. We also use the NYSED program for our English Language Arts program.
