Dear Mom and Dad,
This week was good. Let me tell you about it.
The best part of my week was band because I got to play my clarinet .
In math, I learned that a unit fraction a unit fraction is that the numerator is always one. In science, we brainstormed traits of a great scientist. For example, a great scientist ask questions and and writes a lot of stuff down and. An interesting word I found is Vociferous, wafted and enthusiastically Lastly, one way I can be a good steward is by helping the people by giving them what they need.
Update from Mrs. Hall: Another week of growth and learning in 5th grade! We have begun to develop classroom routines that allow us to be independent learners in reading, writing and spelling. In bible, we spent time understanding God’s call to be good stewards over the earth. In math, we started our unit on fractions, with a focus on unit fractions and equivalent fractions. We began discussing the traits of a great scientist so that we can live them out in our own science investigations, and will begin an inquiry into earth’s systems next week. We did our first bible memory on Psalm 46:1, and I am eager to see scripture get tucked away into each child’s heart this year! Thank you to those that came out to parent night, it was great to see you again!
