Welcome to Fifth Grade! As the leaders of our elementary school, fifth graders are stepping into a crucial year focused on deep critical thinking, leadership, and preparing for the transition to middle school. To support their growth and maintain the highest academic standards, we are in the middle of updating our curriculum framework. During this transition, you will see a mix of our active curriculum guides alongside newly updated documents.
To help you stay connected with what your child is learning, every guide begins with a brief overview on Page 1. This page gives you a quick, clear summary of the unit’s focus without having to navigate dense planning details.
Newly Updated Documents (Stage 1 Links): On our updated guides, Page 1 features direct links to Stage 1 of our new framework. Stage 1 outlines the big ideas, essential questions, and mastery goals your fifth grader will be working to achieve.
Current Curriculum Documents: For units actively in the refresh pipeline, Page 1 provides the primary learning objectives, key concepts, and core classroom activities.
