This brings us about halfway through the year – five months down and five months to go.
Last week we finished the volume portion of this math unit, and on Friday we moved onto the second half, which covers measurement. We finally started unit 2 in science, Earth’s Systems and Human Impacts. Science is much more sporadic this year in fifth grade as the curriculum is all brand new, and it is being written/revised for us just prior to the units being taught. However, we’re in it now and it should be fun.
On Tuesday students will learn about a school wide contest called Battle of the Books. Stay tuned and ask your child about this. Encourage him/her to get involved because more involved = more reading.
Upcoming Events
April Vacation – April 9-13
Nathan Hale Homestead trip – Friday, May 18
