4th Grade

Greetings from 4th Grade

My, how we are busy learning. We have just finished our study on North Carolina History and truly there was a lot to learn. We visited many historical sites such as: Bath, Tryon Palace, Charles B. Aycock Birthplace and Raleigh during our study. Those field trips were fun yet educational. It helped N. C. History come alive. Thank goodness our North Carolina Notebook is completed.

Now, we will begin concentrating on reading several books for book reports. Math has been great! We're learning about fractions, 2-digit divisions, converting measurements and many other concepts. We've just started our chapter on plants in Science and we're learning how to identify trees by their leaves. We've already covered two great chapters on insects and oceanography.

Our favorite subject is Bible, though, because we've learned how much God loves us and what a wonderful world He's created for us to enjoy. We memorize many Bible verses to help us grow closer to Him. We also spend time in prayer asking the Lord to help our family and friends. It's a great way to start out our day.

Our least favorite subject is Language. Learning the parts of speech is a big task. However, we'll try to have them mastered by the year's end. Thanks for visiting with us.

Mrs. Beatrice Stroud & the 4th Graders.
