We have completed our first quarter.  Parent/Teacher's conference is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 28.  I have appointment reminders in your child's mailbox.  I am looking forward to visiting with you.

I hope the students have shared the study tools that I have introduced to them.  We are now using Socrative to study for Social Studies.  It is a great study tool that allows the students to practice no matter where they go on their ipods or internet capable appliances.  We also are allowed to use Quizlet. In this sight you need to search Harcourt Social Studies 5th grade.  You can search other subjects as well.

Halloween is fast approaching!  Students have had a good time making "Frankenstein" with salt cartons, and spooky shoe boxes.  Thank you for sharing your supplies.  We will soon need light bulbs so please send them to school when they are no longer working.
