A stapled packet of field trip information as well as the invitation to the 5th Grade Celebration was in your child's Friday Folder. Please have your student bring back the bottom of the 5th grade celebration to indicate if your child is able to attend. (These documents can also been attached electronically if needed.)
Both classes started Math Prodigy this week and it seems to catch their attention! They are doing math and they are loving it!
Learning Goals:
Science: I can investigate night versus day. I can understand a day versus a year when it comes to the earth.
Reading: I can understand concepts such as homophones, summarize, theme, adverbs, Greek roots all through the lens of Historical Fiction.
Writing: I can write to persuade using STRONG reasons.
