The children learn how to read a text in order to acquire new concepts and ideas. Throughout the year, the students work on deepening their strategies and skills for reading comprehension across all content areas. In math, the students begin the exciting new adventure of multiplication and division!

In science and social studies, the students begin working more intently on using the scientific inquiry process for the science fair, and they explore American history throughout the year.

Pro-Social Skills
The students in third, fourth, and fifth grade continue to learn how to problem solve, but they also work on how to build friendships and resolve conflicts that arise among peers. The students work to build independent learning skills which include organization skills, study skills, and note-taking skills. These skills will enable the students to gain confidence as academic learners.
