    • 2nd Grade


      In second grade the children will be building upon previously learned skills and concepts while mastering new ones. Some topics we will be learning about in Math are place value, 2 and 3 digit addition and subtraction, money, time and fractions. In Reading we will continue to work on becoming great readers and work on our phonics and grammar skills.

      We also will learn how to write in script. The students will become great scientists as they learn about animals, plants, weather and the solar system. Learning about our country, reading a map and our communities will be our focus in Social Studies. In Religion the children will be preparing for the reception of two sacraments, Reconciliation and Eucharist.

    • 3rd Grade


      Third grade is an exciting time as children come upon new adventures in learning. This is a year of important transitions, as well as gaining new skills. It is important to keep in mind that we will build on small successes. Each child will progress at his/her own rate, acquiring skills as he/she is developmentally ready.

      The children will be learning many math topics this year. They will be tackling multiplication and division this year. They will also be studying measurement, geometry, fractions and many multistep problems.

      In third grade the focus for reading is to develop higher level thinking skills using a variety of genres. Students will read short stories that focus on different aspects of literature-setting, characters, theme and plot. The focus during writing is to develop more detailed writing while becoming more proficient at punctuation, capitalization, and spelling. Students will be expected to expand on ideas and pull information from the text to support their answers and thinking.

      There is a lot to learn in Science and Social Studies. We will be using both the online tools and text to complete chapters and quizzes on various science topics. In Social Studies we will be learning about communities, continents, explorers, landforms and much more.

    • Fourth grade is a year when students are developing their critical and higher order thinking skills. In English Language Arts students are learning skills such as story structure, main idea, theme, cause and effect, and many others, as well as applying strategies such as inferring/predicting, summarizing, and visualizing that will help students read with more purpose and become lifelong readers. We also incorporate novel studies throughout the school year. The students are also developing their writing skills which includes narrative, informational, and persuasive writing, while also building on their knowledge of proper sentence structure and paragraph formation.
    Math
    • Fourth grade math begins the year with a focus on place value of multi-digit numbers. The year advances to focus on how you can multiply and divide 1-digit and 2-digit numbers. We introduce how to simplify and find equivalent fractions, as well as an introduction on how we can relate both fractions and decimals. We will explore how we can multiply a fraction and a whole number and use our prior knowledge about fractions to simplify our answer. We also explore how to identify different angles of shapes and how we can classify shapes.
    Science
    • In fourth grade science students master comprehension of science concepts and apply, analyze, synthesize and evaluate their knowledge. An important component of STEM study is the meaningful understanding of the foundations of technology, engineering, and computer coding. We are learning science concepts and vocabulary, building inquiry, STEM, and 21st Century skills, incorporating math and writing in each science lesson. Each unit is designed to focus on a Big Idea and supporting Essential Questions. As they read, students summarize and organize their science ideas in charts, tables, diagrams, and other graphic organizers. Active reading teaches students to analyze and interact with science concepts. Each inquiry lesson provides an opportunity for students to experience a multimodal approach for learning science concepts and skills. Students learn concepts of physical science and life science. Students have lab experiences that teach them to observe, experiment, record, and analyze. Students learn to hypothesize and make conclusions based on evidence.
    Religion
    • Religion class includes learning about our Catholic Church and the Catholic community to which we belong. Students continue to learn the prayers of our faith, about the lives of saints, and how to care for all of God’s creation.
    Social Studies
    • Fourth grade Social Studies focuses on different events and geographical components for the state of New York. Some topics that will be discussed throughout the year are Colonial times, the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, New York government, and Native Americans. The students in fourth grade will be able to relay the information that they learn through different projects and writing assignments.

    • Fifth grade is a year when students are building on their critical and higher order thinking skills they learned in fourth grade. In English Language Arts students build on all the skills learned in prior grades and dive deeper into skills such as inferencing, main idea, summarizing, theme, and many more. We also incorporate novel studies throughout the school year. The students are also building on their writing skills, which include narrative, informational, and persuasive writing, while also building on their knowledge of proper sentence structure and paragraph formation.
    Math
    • Fifth grade math begins the year with a focus on place value of multi-digit numbers. We begin to explore how we can use our knowledge of place value to solve expressions that include both multiplying a multi-digit number by a two-digit number and using exponents and how we can divide multi-digit numbers. We build on that knowledge by beginning to expand our understanding of place value to decimal numbers. We will explore how to add and subtract decimal numbers up to the thousandths place and then advance to being able to multiply and divide decimal numbers. In fifth grade we will investigate how to work with fractions with unlike denominators and mixed numbers. We will learn how to multiply and divide fractions building on our understanding of fractions. Following, we will use both our knowledge of decimals, fractions, and whole numbers and apply this knowledge to learning about different graphing procedures (line plot and line graph). We will also explore different units of measure (capacity, customary, and metric) and we will determine how to convert the different units of measurement. Finally, we will end the year exploring how to solve for the volume of 3-dimensional figures.
    Science
    • In fifth grade science students master comprehension of science concepts and apply, analyze, synthesize and evaluate their knowledge. An important component of STEM study is the meaningful understanding of the foundations of technology, engineering, and computer coding. We are learning science concepts and vocabulary, building inquiry, STEM, and 21st Century skills, incorporating math and writing in each science lesson.

As they read, students summarize and organize their science ideas in charts, tables, diagrams, and other graphic organizers. Active reading teaches students to analyze and interact with science concepts. Each inquiry lesson provides an opportunity for students to experience a multimodal approach for learning science concepts and skills. Students learn concepts of Earth science, Oceanography, Meteorology, and Astronomy. Students have lab experiences that teach them to observe, experiment, record, and analyze. Students learn to hypothesize and make conclusions based on evidence.
    Social Studies
    • Fifth grade Social Studies focuses on the United States, Canada, and Latin America. Throughout the year the students will be learning about the history of each place as well as their geography, history and cultures. The students in fifth grade will be able to relay the information that they learn through different projects and writing assignments.
