Math - We are in Module 2 and learning to multiply and divide whole numbers. Here is a great parent tip sheet for this unit.
Reading - Students each have a self-selected novel, and should be reading a minimum of 20 mins each night. Here are some great questions to ask your child after they finish reading their novel or listening to their audio book each night.
Writing - Students are researching to support a claim with evidence and reasoning.
Science - Electricity! Static vs current electricity and simple circuits.
Social Studies - Coming soon ... Our first unit will be a review of the Civil War from 4th grade.
Distance Learning:
Distance Learning days are NOT vacation days. Parents, and Guardians - We need your help in reinforcing this to students. Check-in time for 5th graders will be 8:00a.m. via Google Meet. All necessary links and work will be on Canvas (a familiar tool for your child). Students who do not check in and/or complete the day's work will be counted as absent. Chromebooks and chargers MUST come back Thursday morning. Thank you for helping us assure every child is successful! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!
Important Dates:
Wed, 9/23 - Distance Learning Day
Fri, 9/25 - Food Corp Lesson (wear clothes to work in the garden!)
