You will also learn about immigration and citizenship. To visit some excellent immigration sites, click here.

Fourth Graders, We have some exciting news! You can watch United Streaming videos at home to learn more about the subjects we are studying in school. We hope you make the time to watch some of these excellent videos. Remember- research shows that if you watch informational videos in sections and stop to discuss or take notes, you will remember more and better understand the material. Extra credit will be awarded for neat and careful video notes, or a note signed by a parent who discussed the video in sections with you.
