5th grade Teamwork

Happy Friday!

We have completed out first Friday of the year. We have a lot of great kids in our classes! We are enjoying getting to know them.

Today we did our first official switches of the year. Here is what we did in our classes today:

Math: We took a pretest over skills that we will be working on. Mrs. D will use these tests to determine where we will begin this year.

Science: We did a fun direction quiz that the students really enjoyed.

Social Studies: We had an introduction about social studies. We also discussed current events.

In Mrs. D's class we also read Chapter 2 in The City of Ember. This is a fabulous book and we are doing activities along with the book. The students have a comprehension sheet and a story map to complete. Most completed this in class. It is due on Monday. We also wrote in our journals and introduced the spelling words for next week.

In Mr. H's class we are reading The Wish Giver. This is a great book and we are having some great discussions.

In Mr. P's class we worked on a descriptive paragraph. If this was not completed please finish it this weekend along with your picture. We will begin reading on Monday.

We hope you have a fabulous weekend!
