Week of March 27-31

Happy Friday to all 5D Families!

Happy almost April Fool's Day.  We had some pranking all day long in 5D! Make sure to ask your child all about it!  They are pretty funny.....

Tomorrow marks the start to April.  We are almost in our home stretch of the year!  I look forward to seeing many of you this coming week for conferences.  Here's what we did this week...


  • Math
    • Students worked on angles, classifying triangles by their sides and angles as well as supplementary and opposite angles
    • We ended the week with an assessment
  • Literacy
    • The students have done a lot of work in their argument!
    • They built in strong evidence and layered in their own personal flavor
    • We wrote strong leads and added in counterclaims
    • All students have created a strong, clear, passionate, argument
  • Science
    • Each student came up with a hypothesis, materials and procedure for their matter experiment
    • Groups performed their experiments on Tuesday
    • All students individually wrote up their data, notes and conclusion
    • We also discovered the differences between physical and chemical changes
  • Read Aloud
    • Scar Island is enthralling!  Make sure to ask your child about it!
