 Fourth graders will be learning all about writing detailed five paragraph expository and narrative essays. Expository essays explain something or how to do something. Narrative essays tell a story about someone or something. Mrs. Swanson will be teaching the writing this year. |

 Fourth graders will be mastering double digit multiplication this year and hopefully some long division. Fractions and decimals are a big part of 4th grade math too! Keep practicing those flash cards to master all facts! Pioneer is very excited to have the opportunity to try a new online math supplement called ixl.com! Your student login and password will be available on the first week of school. This is a very effective math program with challenging questions and fun rewards.The ixl.com is truly aligned with our Washington math standards!!! Mrs. Jensen will be teaching math this year. |

All fourth graders will be learning technology and research skills with Mrs. Barnard this school year. We will use a variety of software and hardware throughout the school year. Mrs. Barnard will be teaching non-fiction reading this year along with technology and Acclerated Reader.

 This year 4th graders will be reading short stories from the Harcourt Collections reading series. The new Houghton-Mifflin science curriculum has a great amount of nonfiction reading. Accelerated Reader (AR) will complement the Harcourt and Houghton reading and science series with about 15-30 minutes of silent reading in class each day. |
