GRADE FOUR
GO RHA THUNDER!
RHA offers many sports opportunities for budding and
seasoned athletes. The school trophy case proudly
displays the many awards and trophies we have won over
the years. Physical education classes focus on activation,
fun games, skills development and improvement,
sportsmanship and the pursuit of an active lifestyle.
The Jewish Day School Sports League (JDSSL) offers
inter-school competition with leagues and tournaments
in multiple sports.
LIGHTS, SOUND, ACTION!
This multidisciplinary unit includes language arts,
social studies, science and technology. With a
spotlight on Indigenous shadow plays, students
learn the properties of sound and light to enhance
communication. Students collaborate and think
critically while focusing on global issues such as peace,
identity, diversity, sustainability, innovation and justice.
They choose a legend to retell, complete a project
plan and present it to their peers.
DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP
Computational learning supports problem-solving
skills. Digital citizens use online tools properly and
safely to connect with others. We start implementing
skills early using innovative tools. We offer access to
resources and foster creativity through technology.
Students use Chromebooks to enhance learning.
These devices are safe, easy to use and allow students
to work independently or collaborate with other
students from wherever they may be.
WORLD MATH
The International Caribou Mathematics Competition
is held six times throughout the school year and
culminates with the "Caribou Cup". Open to students
in Grades 2 through to 8, RHA students have rocked
Caribou, placing among the world's top 2% in their
grade categories!
