5th Grade

5th Grade FIELD TRIP!

We went to Wilson Ponds and released the trout we have raised in the classroom, learned about aging trout with scales, practiced casting before actual fishing, did an art project, took a tour of the fish hatchery, and enjoyed our very last day of GT!

One student even caught a fish!!

Mock Trial Time!

Had a little fun with Students presenting 3 different "Mock Trials"!

Click through the photos below!

It's the LAW! . . .

In 5th grade, students have been learning ALL about various aspects of the LAW! Here are some photos of them in action as they present their "debates"! Students researched and prepped short speeches and rebuttals to debate a topic being "for" or "against". Who knows, we might just have some future lawyers or judges in our class. . .

5th Grade Authors

Ten 5th grade Students read their Children's Books on Overcoming Fear to First and Second Graders at West Canyon Elementary. Students spent 6-7 weeks before Christmas Break writing their books and were very excited to finally get to go and read them. It was a fun time for both groups!

Pixelated Logos

If there was an app icon that represented you - what would it be? Students focused on a character trait and drew a symbol for their logo. They then used conditional formating to create it in google sheets. Enjoy their creativity!

Scratch Catch Game

Here is the link to watch the 5th graders Scratch games! For many it was the first time they have coded their own game. Enjoy their creativity! Click HERE

First Day Challenge

MINT ROLLER CHALLENGE!

Small groups were given a bag of few supplies and 12 minutes to create a vehicle to race down the track! The creation that made it the furthest distance before going out of bounds won! Innovative designs, creative thinking & collaboration, and great fun were the results of today's first challenge!

MATH CHALLENGE! . . . Building Higher Thinking & Solving Together!

Small groups were randomly selected and given an envelope with clues to solve their math challenge. They had to work together to share their information and knowledge to solve these higher level thinking challenges.

FIBONACCI & BINARY CODE

Students learned how to count and write in Binary Code! Ask them to write you a message in this and see if you can figure it out!

Fibonacci & the Golden Spiral! The Fibonacci Sequence is in almost everything. . . It is A-MAZING! Students explored this sequence of numbers in nature, in making the golden spiral, learned about the multiplying rabbits math problem based on Fibonacci's sequence, and more! 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, . . . . . and on!
