Dunes Field Trip....................... June 1st - (Rain date- June 4th)




Track and Field Day - Thanks to all volunteers and to parents that could come out and enjoy the day with their 5th
grader. A beautiful day! A big thank you goes to Mrs. Peterson and Mr.  Petroelje who coordinate and run this very fun event for our 5th graders!  Since everyone is all over the place and I work an event, I know I missed some people. Monday we'll take pictures of relay teams, etc. since kids are bringing shirts back to be signed- I need another group picture with 3 absent and a couple who didn't come for the photo!

Math:
  We completed Chapter 5 graphing and statistics on Wednesday with the test. Students did quite well. We have only one unit left- Ratios and Percents. We have been and will continue to review concepts we have worked on this year.




Reading:
 
 Book Club continues. Some students need to complete their section 3 reading and response activity for homework. Others may begin section 4 if they choose.

Writing:
 
Pourquois are completed. Students had the option to make a slideshow, iMovie, etc. They should be putting those on their web pages in InfoTech. We began discussion and planning of our 5th grade Middle School prompt. Students will continue pre-writing and begin drafting.

Science:
 
We have been discussing inherited traits and learned behaviors as well as continuing to care for and observe our animals. There will be a quiz Thursday over concepts we have been discussing in class. We have been reviewing daily.


Spelling:
This
week's skill was apostrophes. The tests will be next Monday.
Have a great weekend!
