Greetings from Grade 4. The first two weeks of this semester have been full of success and continuation of our learning journey. The students of Grade 4 have successfully completed the ‘Unit of Inquiry’ called ‘Who We Are’. This unit focused on the importance and impact of role models in our daily life. Many of our students chose either their parents or major sports and entertainment figures as their role model. For this inquiry our students learned and shared that family, integrity, patience, and perseverance are important to their individual vision, goals and ambition. Our students are motived and inspired by their role models and plan to use their role model characteristics to help them overcome obstacles they may face.

Grade 4 English has seen many successes as well. Our students are continuing with their use of Spelling Shed, IXL and MyOn Digital library to aid their education journey in conjunction with focussed teaching in English class. The next few weeks will see the children learn proper usage of the ‘future tense’.

We would lastly like to mention our extreme pride in the Grade 4 students’ participation and successes in FCG’s Sports Day. It is also worth mentioning that the day was full of successes for all the Primary students at FCG and whilst our focus has been on Grade 4, we know the entirety of the FCG community has also been extremely proud of the ‘amazing’ achievements or all our ‘amazing’ students.
