Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, or the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.

Dear St. Jerome Fourth Grade Families,
Happy Friday! A big shot out to all the grandparent/special friends that joined us for an amazing celebration. Here is a recap of this week.
Religion: Students learned about the parts of the Mass. We attended Mass with the parish and school community. Kudos to fourth grade everyone is in TiER 1 uniform.
Math: Students learned about the value of a digit to one million, read and write multi-digit up to one million. We also finished STAR Math testing.
Reading: Students continued to apply their reading comprehension skills by reading the main text: Earthquakes! in the Wonders curriculum. Students took their first reading and vocabulary test yesterday. Students will continue to practice/enrich their comprehension skills in the leveled readers next week.
Writing: Students worked on their written expression. They completed September writing prompt #2. They will revise and edit their draft and type the final draft.
Grammar: Students continued to work on types of sentences. We will finish compound sentences next week.
Spelling: Students will take their spelling test this Thursday, 9/11/25.
Students need to purchase the book Fourth Grade Rats by Jerry Spinelli by Monday, September 8, 2025.
