Gold star! We made it through a FULL week, and it felt GREAT!
- The purple Reading Minutes slip should be signed and returned to school on Monday. They will come home with a new one that same day!
- We had our first Word Work/Spelling Test today. A new word list will be put in their binders on Monday and should stay there for the week as they prepare for the next test on Friday.
- All Walk-a-Thon envelopes are due back to school on Wednesday, September 19. The actual Walk-a-Thon will be held at the high school track at 1pm on Wednesday, September 26.
- Fractions, fractions, and more fractions. In Math we are living and breathing all things fractions! Mixed numbers, common denominators, mixed numbers, etc. Your fifth grader is working hard!
- We spent some time digging into memoir mentor texts and brainstorming about possible ideas for our own (longer-than-six-word) memoirs during our writing time. This coming week we begin drafting.
- All fifth graders are invited to wear red, white, and blue on Monday (9/17) for our Constitution Day celebration!
- Looking ahead:
- There will be no school on Friday, September 28 due to Staff Profession Development.
- Grandparents' Day is the afternoon of Thursday, October 11.
