Welcome to the exciting world of 4th grade!  You are truly entering the intermediate elementary years, and with that comes new ideas, challenges, and curriculum.  Fourth graders study crayfish, astronomy, and rocks; advance their reading, writing, and math skills; learn about ancient civilizations and some not so ancient (Mexico and Canada); and participate in my senior citizen pen pal program!  It will be a year of creativity, wonder, and learning.  Put on your best cocperative caps so our class can be a united team, and enter to see what awaits you.
