Hi, 5th Grade Families!
Wow… It’s hard to believe that we began the third marking period today! Here’s what is coming down the Pike, in 5th Grade, that will help us to make our brains STRONGER!!!
Curriculum News:
Reading with Mrs. Eby: 5th-grade readers and writers continue to work hard and stretch their brains to make them stronger! We will be wrapping up our reading, analyzing, and identifying the five different types of text structures this week. We will then move into a non-fiction passage entitled, “A Drop of Water”. We’ll read, analyze and become familiar with the liquid, solid, and gas forms of water. Keep up the excellent work…YOU ROCK!!!
Spelling: Your child received a spelling homework packet today. She/he is aware that the completed packet is due Thursday morning and our test is on Friday.
Math with Miss Miller: Mathematicians have put their best effort forward in our eighth unit: fractions and decimals. This week, we will wrap up unit 8 and take our unit 8 test on Wednesday, January 26th. Your child will bring home a study guide the night before the test for homework. We will then start our ninth unit: adding and subtracting fractions! I am so proud of every fifth grader’s hard work!
Reminders:
This Friday, January 28th, the children will be dismissed at 1:30.
Thank you for your continuous support, and have a wonderful week!
Mrs. Eby 🙂
