Hubbard Forever!

Grade 4

Grade 4

Welcome to Grade 4! The curriculum focuses on a wide range of academic skills in reading, writing, spelling, mathematics, science and social studies. The Language Arts curriculum: Wit & Wisdom will help your child become a stronger reader, writer, thinker, and communicator. Rather than simply reading stories and answering questions, students will explore interesting topics through high-quality books and texts while building knowledge about the world around them. The math curriculum focuses on multiplication, division, fractions, geometry and data collection. Students explore the water cycle, ecosystems, and biomimicry in Science. Social Studies units focus on regions of the United States. Technology is integrated throughout all curricular areas.
