I hope that everyone had a great long weekend. We have 3 weeks until Winter break and we will be working hard during that time!
Math - We are well into Unit 3 in math. This unit is focusing on fractions. Here are the outcomes for the report letters. You should see practice in these areas with the daily homework. If your child is having problems with any of these areas I am available to work with students at lunch. There are also many online sites that will guide and support your child in practicing these outcomes.
Reading - The students are learning 5 different types of text structure that they may encounter in a non-fiction text. These are ongoing lessons that are being taught in all fifth grade classes. Please remind your child to read for 30 minutes each night.
Book Fair - The book fair is coming soon! Please look for information coming home about this fun event!
Thank you! - Thank you for all of the donations made to our first class party! The students had a lot of fun. We even had an impromptu dance party. This is a great class and I'm sure they will be earning their way to another fun activity soon.
