As we began our last week before the Thanksgiving break, the fifth grade had a busy day. During math class, the students completed their work with the Star Wars math problems from Friday. Time was also spent reviewing for the unit one assessment which will be given tomorrow. Students have worked tirelessly throughout the first three months of the school year and I believe that will be reflected in the results of these assessments.
Later in the day, students undertook a writing activity to generate ideas for future use during our narrative writing unit. Room 312 created a story blueprint of either a place or room that holds special significance for them. The fifth graders had some fun with this activity and I enjoyed getting to have students share their memories with the class.
This week, the fifth graders will also all have published their opinion writing pieces, these papers have taken a lot of time and work. I commend my students on their dedication to the writing process.
