Grades
Where are they? I'm sure you're all wondering where your child's grade are! Unfortunately, my grade books are experiencing technical difficulties which are completely out of my control. Everyone is working hard to get them up and running. I apologize and I appreciate everyone's patience. I'll post when they are ready to go! Have a great week!

Happy Weekend!
I have been blocked from my blog, but I'm back! We've had 8 great days! This group is amazing! They are learning how to work fast and not waste time as the fifth grade curriculum is packed! I know you haven't seen any work come home yet, but your students have been working very hard! Our grade books are not set up yet, but as soon as they are I will begin posting grades. Please check the parent portal regularly as soon as you start seeing grades. I will also be emailing a newsletter to you every Friday. Please be aware of the following:
Social Studies: Causes of the Civil War flip books are due Wednesday, 8/21. I expect these to be very neat and organized and to be packed with lots of information and specific details.
Chapter 1 Test will be on Thursday, 8/22. They have many resources in their SS notebooks that they should be studying. Tests are multiple choice and long answer. Again, I will be expecting detailed answers!
Ask your children about STAMINA. We have been working on building our reading and writing stamina this week. It's harder than it sounds! By March your children will be expected to be able to sit and write for 2 hours for the writing test. It might sound impossible now, but I promise you they will be ready! I'm already seeing improvement in their stamina!
I look forward to seeing all of you at Curriculum night on Thursday, 8/22. Enjoy your weekend!
