Fourth Grade

Fourth grade at FPA is a stimulating grade level for students as it continues to build on previously learned concepts and skills and challenges students to reach their highest potential through active cognitive engagement. In history, the modern age is examined, including Queen Victoria’s England, World War I, and World War II, giving students a general overview of major historic events and people during this period.

Students continue to improve their handwriting skills by focusing on proper character alignment, shape, slant and neatness using A Reason for Handwriting. Rounding out the fourth grade curriculum is the study of Latin as used in both religious and scientific settings with emphasis given to English derivatives and well known prayers and benedictions.
