What a fun week in 5th grade!! Hopefully we can all get some rest and relaxation over this upcoming 4-day weekend!
Here's what we've been up to...
Science: We reviewed for our chapter 7 test on Tuesday and Wednesday and took our test on Thursday! I could tell that the kiddos studied hard for the test and know it will pay off!
Math: We started chapter 5 in math today-- decimals!! We learned how to round decimals and use estimation to add and subtract decimals. This seems like a strength for many of the kids, they are anxious to get into adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing decimals soon!!
Writing: We finished up our research on the historical event of each student's choice and began writing our drafts. I am so excited to see so many kiddos using strategies that we have learned about information writing as they are drafting!
Reading: In reading we have continued to use this time for research and independent reading. Lots of students have gotten choice books on their topic and are using independent reading time to gain more knowledge about their event.
Upcoming Events:
10/7 & 10/8: NO SCHOOL
10/11: Veteran's Day Assembly 9AM
I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Holtmann
