Fischer & James 5th Grade Awards.mp4It has been absolutely amazing being back in the classroom with your children! We are getting back into the swing of things greatly and into a routine. I am so proud of the kids for their hard work so far.
Please make sure your child is reading nightly and getting their reading log signed. This is a weekly grade. They also have Word Application homework weekly to prepare for the tests and will begin weekly reading passage sheets soon.
We are working hard on learning the states in Social Studies. I am SO PROUD of their results on the first few tests! We are continuing through all the regions until we make it through all 50 states! Have them show you what they have learned and the tricks and tips that can help you remember the states too! :)
Please let me know if you have any questions!
Love,
Mrs. James
