I looped from 4th to 5th. It is awesome teaching the same kids for two years in a row. You can get right to work in September.

Re: Anyone teach 4th Grade?

Some teachers have looped in our school. I think it can be a great idea ( I am in fourth.) Looping from third to fourth is a great age to do it. While the S.S is different, a lot of the math builds from three to four, as does the NYS ELA content. What a great way to truly sense what your kids need! I think it's a great idea!

Re: Anyone teach 4th Grade?

I'm 4th grade


I can see definite pros and cons to looping

Same kids= know where there at, know personalities, drive you crazy after a 2 years

New curriculum= more $$$ on materials, different and new


Would you continue to loop or go back to 3rd grade and loop every 2 years??
