Welcome to Fourth Grade

At Trenton Catholic Preparatory the goal for fourth grade is rising to excellence. Learning is interdisciplinary and develops the emotional, physical, intellectual, social and moral facets of each child.

Our curriculum is developed by the Diocese of Trenton and is aligned with New Jersey’s core curriculum content standards.

Religion: Students learn the Commandments and how to follow them living in today’s world.

Language Arts: Students have many opportunities to enhance their reading and writing skills. Students practice vocabulary, grammar, spelling and story elements.

Science: Science curriculum standards for fourth grade include Earth Science and the study of earthquakes, volcanoes, fossils, weather, oceans and space.

Mathematics: Students enhance their math skills by practicing two and three digit addition and subtraction, and are introduced to long division and two and three digit multiplication.

Social Studies: The core of fourth grade curriculum in Social Studies is the study of New Jersey and its history.

This is my second year teaching at TCPA and I am super excited to be back. I graduated from Kean University with a MFA specializing in Graphic Design. I worked in the corporate world for many years and continued my education at The College of Saint Elizabeth graduating with a teachers certification in Early Childhood Education.

I have a passion for teaching and I believe that students will get more interested and excited about learning when they are active and engaged. As an artist and graphic designer, I incorporate hands-on learning and collaboration in my teaching that allows them to think, talk and process the material with their peers.

I am truly excited about meeting all of you. Remember that each day is a great day to learn something new.
