Virtual Classes for Grade 4 - Session B

Take your writing and language arts skills to the next level with modern, digital tools!

This is a 6-session program (2 times per week, for 3 weeks) for students in grade 4 that are learning from home.  Our virtual classes are instructor-led, curriculum-tied and emphasize how to use digital tools and coding to enhance their learning needs in core school subjects. 

Teachers guide students to research and create their own information site about topics that interests them. This session's theme is to use expository writing to learn about health topic such as:

• What is an immune system?
• What are viruses versus bacteria?
• What are vaccines?

We build on students' curiosity to encourage research and writing to build content for their own website.  Students will learn to use website-building tools such as Wix or Wordpress as part of their work.
