Getting to know one another with index card towers! For every characteristic they shared as a group, they used an index card to build a tower. It turns out we all have a lot in common. This was a Fun get-to-know activity and had a little bit of STEAM engagement too! Let's Make Squares challenged them to learn the value of good communication. Students had to first build something together without communicating at all. Turns out, communicating works a lot better!
One of the greatest things about 5A is the student ownership and the role that they take in making the year a great one. We have several committees that help make our room a better place to be.
We learned all about ecosystems and used this information to help plan the food resources for a Mars Biodome!

the 24th manners Meal was awesome. Not only do the students get to learn and practice manners, they get to see and feel the community that surrounds and supports them. Thank you to the staff and parents who made this year once again possible!
Book reports are something that we do in 5A. It's an opportunity to share the literature we are reading with one another. Students discover new titles and authors as they listen to their peers present.
Thank you, Mrs. Kaper! We love Ag in the Classroom.
