Exciting Things Ahead

We are about to begin the Cardboard Challenge.  This is a very exciting challenge for the class.  If you are wondering what this is all about or what you may need to do, watch the video below.  Parents do not need to anything except maybe save some recyclables for your child to bring in for the challenge.  This will be our first Engineering and Design challenge.  We will be working on this until October 10th.  I will be posting pictures, so check back soon.

We have also been busy with our Moldy Bread Experiment.  Starting Monday we will be observing the changes in the bread and answering some questions about why certain breads will mold faster than others.  I will have updates and pictures for you on the bread later this week.

We are very busy in fifth grade!  But we have a lot of fun.  Stay tuned for updates.

Off To A Great Start!

We have had a great start to our year!  Each day since school has started, I have been greeted by smiling faces and eager to learn children.  A teacher couldn't ask for anything more.

A few things to remember, gym is on Tuesday and Friday so make sure you come dressed and ready to play!  If you don't have all of your supplies, please make sure you get them soon.  We all need to be ready to work and need the tools to be successful.

Fifth grade will be challenging, but we will have a lot of fun together! It is going to be a great year!
