Ms. Kirkley's Class

Welcome to 5th Grade!

This website is here to serve as a resource for parents to keep track of what is going on in our ELA & Social Studies class this year. I will update this site weekly on Saturdays or Sundays. My email is okirkley@lexrich5.org if you need to contact me.

Meet Ms. Kirkley!

My name is Ms. Kirkley and this will be my fourth full year at CIS in 5th grade. I graduated from Columbia College in December of 2019 with a degree in Elementary Education.  I also have my Gifted and Talented endorsement. The thing that I love most about 5th graders is that they are so passionate about everything that they do and are so resilient. It is also a time when they really start to develop their personalities and grow as readers and writers. In my free time, I like to go on walks, volunteer at Pawmetto Lifeline, or hang out with my family and friends. I am looking forward to another fabulous year in 5th grade!
