Students investigate electricity by studying parallel and series circuits utilizing batteries and bulbs. The study of one celled living things is enhanced through the use of student microscopes. Students build on the foundation they already have in order to learn new ideas and to look at things they have already learned on a more advanced level. Topics studied throughout the year include computational skills with whole numbers, fractions, and decimals, geometry, measurement, ratio, proportion, percent, number theory and problem solving. Physical education is scheduled daily, while a ten week health program is incorporated within the physical education curriculum.
Teachers are available for extra help on a regular basis.
