Image result for happy new year

Thank you, thank you, thank you for a fantastic winter party and for all the sweet and thoughtful gifts. I felt so spoiled and appreciated! 

Welcome back!  I hope everyone enjoyed their winter break and that you are all relaxed and ready for the 2nd half of 5th grade!

Here's what is going on this week-

Science- We are starting a new unit on Earth and Space (chapter 9)! Our first lesson focuses on how Earth moves.


Math- We are now in Volume 2 of our math series and starting chapter 8 on fractions and decimals. This week our focus is on relating fractions and division. Please practice those basic multiplication and division facts with your student- it is SO important to know them quickly in order to efficiently perform these new skills. Thank you for all your hard work at home!

Reading- We will kickoff our fantasy unit. The students will be choosing a fantasy book for their new book clubs. 

Social Studies- This week will focus on setting new goals for the 2017 year and reflect on 2016.  We will begin the 13 Colonies next week!
