Welcome to grade 4 Math!

Welcome to grade four Math at MPB!
We will learn together, we will help each other, we will improve our skills. We will be successful!
Pep talk from Kid President, shown in class today: Kid President PEP talk!
To have success:
-Believe you can! Say good things about your progress. Have positive talks to yourself. Focus on the things you can do. If you start believing you can, you will!
-Make it fun for yourself! Sometimes Math will be difficult. Try and see it as a challenge and enjoy, relax. Remember that you will be able to solve many problems. You won't be able to solve them all right away!
-Persevere, have grit! When Math is tricky and complicated, keep trying. Use other strategies, ask a friend, write what you know, re-read the problem... eventually you will figure it out! In life it is the people who don't give up and keep trying that succeed.
-The power of 'Yet'! Instead of saying: "I can't do this." Say: "I can't do this YET!".
