Wow,what a fabulous first day of fifth grade! It was wonderful to see how much our kids have grown over the summer. Ms. Benson, Mr. Butler, Mrs. Smith, and I will spend the next few days assessing the students and acclimating them to fifth grade, and then I am looking forward to jumping right into the 5th grade curriculum.
Our class will be reading The Egypt Game by Zilpha Keatley Snyder. If you would like to donate a copy to our class set it will be greatly appreciated and well used. Please e-mail me or write a note in your child's agenda if you are able to help out and send in a copy.
One last note to let you know that my door is always open. I look forward to helping the children learn new things, make connections, and solidify the building blocks needed for them to be successful in middle school. I can't wait to see all they will accomplish in fifth grade!
great blog see you tomorrow!
