Weekly News: Week 13

We had a short, four day week this week. With Friday being Veteran's Day, all the 5th graders got to hear from Major Miller about the importance of the day, and why we celebrate our veterans. We also read the book "The Wall" by Eve Bunting and talked about the veterans among our families and friends.

We also finished up Module 2 this week! Students took the Module 2 test on Thursday to show how much they've learned about division. It was a long module and the students worked really hard!

This week students should finish up their Poetry Anthology project so they can present their poetry to the class on Thursday. This is not a speech, but rather a chance to share their work with the class. It is an informal presentation.
