Mrs. Armstrong's 5th Grade
Math & English
5th Grade Math builds a strong foundation in mathematical concepts and numerical problem-solving skills. Students will explore advanced operations, whole whole and part numbers, develop an understanding of geometrical concepts, and strengthen their ability to reason mathematically. We will use measurements & data, algebraic thinking, and order of operations.
5th Grade English Language Arts focuses on developing strong reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills. This year we will be implementing the Reading Mastery program that uses a highly explicit and systematic approach of Direct Instruction to accelerate reading and increase the rate of student success. We will be addressing reading, language arts, and literature through varied reading selections, reading fluency, vocabulary building, and spelling.
