We have finished Ga Milestones testing!!! The students did a great job utilizing their strategies and critical thinking skills. We will get the results in the fall of next school year.
Students have been working hard on their Solar System Gallery projects to celebrate Mrs. Ventura's return on Monday, May 4th. Students have chosen several topics including black holes, discovering new planets, and inner vs. outer planets.
For the next 2 weeks we will be diligently working on the Civil War and previewing integrated 5th grade reading, math, and science. Start studying those US maps now! North vs. South.
