Science and Social StudiesThe fourth grade curriculum correlates our units of Science and Social Studies. We study our earth and its features while relating this information to the United States. Through individual and cooperate group research, students learn the states, their capitals, locations, and natural resources. Using an interactive and hands-on curriculum emphasising thinking skills and strategies to explore the world is the cornerstone of fourth grade science. Students use the science process skills and the scientific method as they study the world in which they live and the plants and animals with which they share the earth. Experiments, demonstrations, reports, projects, presentations, guest speakers, co-operative learning groups, and the Internet are integrated throughout each unit to strengthen the student's knowledge base and application of that knowledge.
