Fifth Grade Happenings
Wow, where has all of our time gone? It seems like yesterday we were starting our fifth grade journey. We have learned so much over the year and are ready to start our new journey in sixth grade. Here is what we have been learning.
In Math, students have worked hard to improve their Math skills by working tirelessly in Math class. They have learned all types of new things in class daily by completing classwork and homework, and participating in class discussions. In addition they have worked on Achieve 3000 and have taken the MAP test for Math. There has been much growth with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of whole numbers, decimals, and fractions, as well as algebraic thinking, geometry, and measurement and data.Thank you to all the parents who have helped explain things along the way. Many have a good foundation for their next step in their math journey.
In ELA they are continuing to work on and polish the grammar skills that they have learned this year. Fifth graders are enjoying learning the various types of poetry and having fun writing their own poems.
In Religion the main standard in Fifth Grade Religion class is to learn the Sacraments and the parts of the Mass. They are concluding their year with reviewing the Ten Commandments.
In Social Studies, they are learning about the US government. They are also learning about the three branches and about the rights granted in the Constitution. Students are learning current news and events by watching CNN 10 weekly.
In Reading they are continuing to learn about main ideas and supporting details found in a story. Students have worked hard to improve their reading skills throughout the year. They have learned a variety of reading skills throughout the year. In addition they have worked hard on Achieve 3000 and have now taken the MAP test for reading.
In Science, they are learning about forces and motion and what causes them to happen. Students have wrapped up their plant and animal lessons and will be finishing the year with force and motion. Students have taken the MAP science test and there was growth in our science test for MAP. Way to go!
In health, students have been learning about the different body systems; muscular, integumentary (skin), heart, lungs and will finish the year learning about their skeletal system. Be on the look out for a health grade on their last report card.
