What a busy week and an even busier one up ahead! On Monday we have Discovery Gateway coming for “Reaction Time” where they will have some great science demonstrations for 5th grade; it’s going to be a lot of fun! That afternoon we will wrap up our explorer unit with explorer day! We will be completing a lot of fun mapping activities! Be sure to ask your students how their day was.
Tuesday is the big day…BizTown! We will leave right at 8:30am so please don’t be late that day. Every child will need to bring a lunch from home; if that is a problem for whatever reason, please let me know, we want to make sure everyone is taken care of. We will return at approximately 2:30 pm. Because students are running businesses we are encouraging them to dress professionally, to make it as real as possible. There is no need to buy anything new, just whatever nice clothes they have will make the day that much more real and fun. We are so excited!
In math we have switched things up a bit. We have swapped with Mrs. French’s class, so I have half her students and she has half of mine. We did this in order to give the best possible instructions at the individual student’s level. So far it is working out great and the students love it. Our plan is to do the same for language arts as well.
This coming week is also picture day; your child should have brought home a flyer about it today.
Everyone did a great job on their explorer in a box project, they were so much fun to present. I will be getting feedback to the students by next week.
Thank you for all your support and hard work! We are in for another great and exciting week in 5th grade!
