5th Grade ELA

It's becoming obvious that many students are not studying their Word Study words each night.  Please encourage your child to master the meanings of these 15 words each week!  Even though they are not to turn in paper homework, their homework is to study these words nightly.  Please watch the parent portal for their grades. Thank you for your support!

5th Grade SS Project

Each student has been assigned one leader from WWII.  They are to begin biographical research on their leader.  They will be writing biographies on these leaders soon. The writings will be from the leader's point of view.  For example, "I am Winston Churchill.  I was born and raised..." The biography will not be long, less than one typed page.  Try to find information about WHY the leader became the positive or negative influence he was on the world.  Final papers will be due Tuesday, January 29.  Please work on your research a little bit each night!
