October 2015

We cannot believe that we have been in school for over a month!  There already have been so many exciting things that have happened.  We began school earlier than normal, were introduced to our school theme of Kindness Counts, learned about new technology (especially Edmodo), met our first grade buddies, prepared for the arrival of Pope Francis, celebrated Mercy Day, had an assembly on Respect, and began out Global Read Aloud.  Wow!  That doesn't even include what we learned in class.  It is going to be a fabulous fifth grade year.

In a few weeks, the fifth graders will be updating our Blog with what is happening in our class and school.  Be sure to stay tuned.

Can you believe that it is the middle of January already?  The fifth grade is right into the swing of things after our long Christmas break.  We have completed our Science unit in Heat and our chapters about Jesus in Religion.  ELA has been exciting with Flashlight Friday and our activities with cause and effect.  Tall Tales are on deck as our next writing project.  Be on the lookout for our published pieces during Catholic Schools Week!
