1st Week of 5th Grade!

Welcome to 5th Grade! We are so excited and ready for a great year ahead of us! The fifth grade teachers will update our blog each week and send it out to families as part of our communication this year. Please take time to read through the blog each week, as we will include important updates, reminders, upcoming events, pictures, and more!

Get to Know the 5th Grade Teachers!



Read more about the 5th Grade Teachers in our 5th Grade Information Packet.


Student Information Form & Family Photos
We would love to have every family complete the Student Information form we sent out on Monday! Please get this completed as soon as you can.

We would also like for your child to create a family photo collage that shows your child's family, pets, hobbies, etc. We talked about this in class and showed them examples. This will be due on Friday, August 25th. Your child will submit it to the Homeroom Hub on Schoology. We greatly appreciate it! 


A Note From the Fifth Grade Teachers




iPads
TCE 5th graders should come to school each day with their iPad and charger. Please ensure your child charges his/her iPad each evening. Your child should also check periodically to ensure his/her iPad's software is up to date (settings --> general --> software update). 

Snack
We will have a short snack time each day while we continue to work. 5th graders do not each lunch until 1:00 PM each day, so it's important that they have a healthy and nutritious snack each day to fuel their bodies. We also ask that the snack they bring is completely free of peanuts/tree nuts. This will help provide a safe environment for all learners. Thank you for your help!

Car Tags
Please do your best to keep your car tag visible when/if you come through the carline to pick up your 5th grader. It helps us get the learners into their cars quickly and efficiently. This is especially helpful when it's raining, extremely hot, or extremely cold.
