5th Grade News



Language Arts/Social Studies - This week in Language Arts, we read an interesting Junior Great Book story called, The Coming of the Surfman.  Learners were challenged to examine human behavior in stressful situations.  In Social Studies, we examined the British army and the Continental army and explored their roles in The Revolutionary War.

Math/Science - This week we reviewed multi-step problems as well as vocabulary for personal finance, whole numbers operations, fractions, decimals, graphing, expressions and equations, and geometry. Learners will have these over the long weekend to review as needed.

In Other News - Please remember that next Tuesday and Wednesday we will be administering the STAAR test for Reading and Math.  Please have your students arrive on time, bring a light sweater or jacket (in case the rooms are cold) and make sure they remember to eat breakfast.
