Learning Together in Fifth Grade
The fifth grade has been very busy! We’ve been reading science-based nonfiction and practicing how to read information in charts and data tables. The class completed the New York State ELA Test before the April break, and we celebrated with a class picnic and movie for lunch! We’ve also been learning about properties of matter and chemical and physical changes to matter in science class. We have several fun science investigations coming up! In math, we’ve been reviewing all of the skills that students have learned and practiced throughout the year. Students have also been sorting different geometric shapes based on their properties. Finally, we have been enjoying the nicer weather by having some activities outside, especially with our Brave Lion program! Mrs. Ferrone, with her Brave Loin program, has been helping our students to learn about how their brains work and respond to different situations, as well as how to find calm and peace in their busy lives.
