As the fifth grade returned to school from the Thanksgiving holiday, it was nice to see the enthusiasm that students brought with them into the classroom.
I was happy with the results of the unit one assessments from math class. There are a few students who need to take the test, but I look forward to sharing the results with room 312. During today's lesson, we began to turn our attention to fractions. This work will continue over the next few weeks and I am positive that students will bring the same level of attention to this that they did during our work in unit 1.
Later in the day, we began to look at the novel Bud Not Buddy. This book was quite popular with the fifth graders last year. I have many students who love to read and I believe that my class will all find something to like about this story. The fifth graders engaged in a worthwhile discussion about the cover of the book. I love to see the passion that the fifth graders bring to their group discussions.
