This week our class will be taking the ACT Aspire test. Our testing window will be from 8-9 all days except for Wednesday.
The next several chapters in math will concentrate on memorization of the basic multiplication and division facts. Practicing at home is highly recommended. There are math fact games on the student links page. You can also make good old fashioned flash cards to practice facts. The best way to memorize facts is to make it a game. Engage your child in the car, practicing facts when headed to different destinations.
In reading we are in a two week unit focused on how text features help us to understand non-fiction texts. We are also working on writing a personal narrative in writer's workshop.
Monday night at 7:00 the PTC will meet in the 5th grade art room, Come on out and check out the great things they do for our school!
Have a great week!
