Weekly News: Week 35

This week was our first week of state testing and the class did a great job! It can be a little overwhelming to spend your mornings reading passages and answering questions, all while staying really quiet, but the class handled it really well!

We also finished our kites, which looked wonderful hanging from the ceiling in our room. They are ready to be viewed at Open House this Thursday. The school year is winding down pretty quickly and there is still so much to come.

Our last Social Studies unit will be a pioneer unit featuring the Oregon Trail. The class has been divided into six Wagon Companies, and has been making key decisions in what items their wagon brings with them on their journey to the Willamette Valley. Along the way the wagons will encounter choices that could ultimately decide their fates.... it should be a great way to wrap up 5th grade.


Just a reminder... we have the Math CAT tomorrow morning. Please be on time to school! We start right at 8:15.
