We look forward to meeting all of you at Open House on September 15, from 6:00 to 7:30.
We are excited about our new Reading program that's called Literacy by Design. We are learning along with the kids and we are loving all of the components that come with the new program.
In Social Studies, we are studying the American Revolution. We learned about French and Indian War. Did you know that George Washington was only 21 years old when he started leading the colonists in battles?
In Science we are studying the layers of the Earth. Did you know that the Earth weighs about 6.6 sextillion (6,600,000,000, 000,000,000,000) tons! The hottest part of the Earth (the center) has temperatures as high as 13,000 degrees F.
In Everyday Math (EDM) we are looking at arrays like 3 X 4. Please practice your multiplication facts every night because we use these skills all year long in fifth grade!!
Spelling tests will still be every Friday.
Most of your notices will come on Friday afternoons, unless they are urgent.
School meeting will be Friday afternoon, Sept. 24th, at 2:15. Please note, that this is a new time from previous years.
