In Amelia Earhart School, fourth graders typically focus on achieving fluency and confidence in both languages.
Language goals include reading comprehension, writing skills, and oral communication in both German and English, with an emphasis on expanding vocabulary and improving grammar.
In math and science, students work on problem-solving, critical thinking, and applying concepts in both languages.
Social studies often emphasize multicultural understanding and history from both linguistic perspectives.
Additionally, social and emotional skills, such as collaboration, empathy, and responsibility, are cultivated to support personal growth and cross-cultural communication.

Fourth Grade
Albert Einstein
Our fourth-grade class is named Albert Einstein, after one of the greatest thinkers in history. Einstein had an amazing mind and was known for his brilliant ideas in science, especially in understanding how the world works. Like Einstein, our fourth graders are full of creativity, curiosity, and intelligence. This year, as they complete their final year at our school, they will use their amazing minds to explore new challenges, think critically, and prepare for the next big step in their journey. Just like Einstein, they are ready to make a big impact as they move forward to new adventures!
