5th Grade is in Full Swing!

The year is flying by and we have so many exciting things going on in 5th Grade. We started off 2009 studying the 1920's and 1930's. Student shared some wonderful projects on 1920's legends like Louis Armstrong, Charles Lindbergh, Henry Ford, Babe Ruth, and Langston Hughes. Then we participated in a model stock market activity. Ask your child what he or she knows about the economy. You may be surprised to hear the answer!

Starting next week, we will be studying genetics and heredity as part of our science curriculum. We also have a field trip coming up to the Teaching Museum to review our study of the Civil War.

Keep checking back for more updates on all of the action in 5th grade!
