#1 This Week in 5th Grade

Hello!

This has been such a great first week of school! Seriously. I couldn't have asked for a better group of kids. I hope your kids have been enjoying the beginning of 5th grade!

This week we went over procedures, took several benchmark assessments, and got familiar with all things 5th grade. Next week we will start getting into the Core curriculum! Click HERE to see our pacing schedule this year.

Please do the following if you haven't already:

1. Fill out the Google Form HERE.

2. Sign Chromebook Contract - students will not be allowed to use Chromebooks after this week without the contract signed.

3. Sign the red Field Trip form

4. Fill out the Free and Reduced Lunch form - We are asking that everyone fill this out, regardless of situation. There is a lot of qualifying information that can potentially help our school receive substantial funding. I cannot stress enough how much this will help Forbes if we get everyone to fill out this form. Thanks for your help!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Thanks for all you do!

We wrote a constitution for our class this week! It was great watching everyone collaborate in their groups.

In our classroom, we have STEM bins (Science Technology Engineering Math). Students can work on a project as a fast finisher. They pick a bin, and then build whatever is instructed on the card. They are a huge hit!
