US Grade 4
Hello, and welcome to grade 4! While I have taught students of every age and grade, my favorite grade by far is grade 4! I feel that one of the most important skills in grade for is personal independence, and therefore I will help students learn organizational skills, develop good work habits, and become responsible, independent students! This course is a full grade 4 curriculum, with the exception of social studies. In term 1 (this section), students will do math, reading, writing, science,...
Math: Students will develop number sense, learn their math facts (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division), graphing, fractions, probability, telling time, area and perimeter, and financial literacy. Literacy: Students will develop various reading comprehension strategies through a guided novel study. Writing: Students will focus on non-fiction writing this term, including compare/contrast, letter writing, and essay writing. Art: Students will focus on the elements of art, as well as explore different art mediums. Science: Term 1 focuses on biomes of the world, simple machines, and states of matter. French: Students will be able to ask and answer questions in French, hold a simple conversation, and discuss their family, home, food, and places they like to go. Cooking: Students will develop confidence in the kitchen by following recipes to make both sweet and savoury dishes. Additionally, students will learn organizational and study skills, how to work together and independently, and how to be a self-aware and self-sufficient learner.
I have a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood and Elementary Education, as well as a Master's Degree in Education. I've been teaching for 8 years, 4 of which have been specifically in grade 4. I grew up in New Brunswick, the only Bilingual French-speaking province in Canada. I have been speaking French since I was in middle school, and teaching it for several years.
Homework Offered
Homework will be regularly assigned. I follow the rule of "10 minutes per grade" for homework, so students in grade 4 should be doing 40 minutes of homework. As a parent, if you feel your child is unable to get everything done in the 40 minutes, you may message me and let me know what he/she didn't complete. We will have homework help blocks in first period. Students may be asked to finish assignments, do some reading, study their French, observe a Science experiment, or serve the food they've cooked to their family. Students will be asked to read (or listen to) 1-2 chapters of our novel each week. I would recommend doing this as an audio book, especially for slower readers or those who struggle with reading. Feel free to listen to it in the car while driving, etc. Reading may take extra time, and may have to be excluded from the 40 minutes a night.2 - 4 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Students will receive regular feedback on assignments and in-class work. Grades will be recorded, and a report card with detailed comments will be sent to parents/guardians at the end of the term.Grades Offered

These syllabi will be provided the second week of school. Supply lists for the first week will be provided by one week before school starts. Activities and worksheets will be provided for the first week of class, then a packet will be provided for the semester at the start of the second week.

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
In cooking, we will be working with common allergens, including dairy, soy, gluten, nuts, and others. If you have an allergy or foods you avoid for other reasons, please let me know. If possible, I will provide substitutions. In addition, students will be using knives, stoves, crock pots, and other cooking implements. Adult supervision may be required depending on the skill level of your child. Various websites will be used in class and/or given to students to use for homework and study outside of class time. Quizlet, Kahoot, and IXL will be used regularly for French and Math. Google Classroom will be used to record grades, but students will not be asked to access or use it regularly. to help organize lesson materials, provide grades, and give feedback, and students can use google docs and slides to complete assignments (although they can also use a Docs and Powerpoint or another program). IXL will be used in class for student practice.
Curriculum is based on the British Columbian and Albertan grade 4 curriculum, where I have taught for 4 years. I have supplemented the content with my own resources that support the lessons.
