MATH UPDATE: As the year is marching right along, so are the 5th grade math concepts. We have been accomplishing a hefty agenda each week with everyone's perseverance, hard work and the "I can " attitude. This week we are practicing long division with one digit divisors. Hang in there...don't give up. This week there will not be a quiz on Friday...just more drill and practice which we in fifth grade know leads to PERMANENCE of skills!!!!!!
SCIENCE UPDATE: In science, we are going to be investigating and learning about Sir Isaac Newton and his three laws. We will start to prepare for a BIG, HUGE, end of the unit test on Motion and Design. We have learned a lot and had lots of fun using the K-Nex to test theories and learn vocabulary words.
WELLNESS UPDATE: Each week to start our wellness lesson, we participate in a 5 minute physical activity. We have completed stretches, some aerobic exercises, and just recently have been practicing the Electric Slide. If you are interested in learning it, ask your Team Barracuda Student and they should be able to share it with you.
REPORT CARDS: Report cards will come home on Wednesday, November 6, 2013. If your student is pleased with their results, keep up the good work habits. If they are displeased, have them set a goal and make daily changes to support the goal to increase the grade or score. We have so much potential on Team Barracuda...we want to be sure everyone works to their best.
