Today was show time for the fifth graders. The concert was excellent. The fifth graders sang their two songs together and it sounded great.

Later in the school day, the students continued to prepare for their ELA MCAS test. The students have been writing some responses to prompts. I think that the students will do well with their upcoming testing.


This Thursday and next Thursday, the fifth graders will be having a yoga session in school for a half hour. If students have a yoga mat at home we would appreciate it if they could bring them with them to school.

Homework

Math - worksheet due on Friday

Reading - 30 minutes of quiet reading per night

Blog - recently the fifth graders have learned about the first permanent English settlement in America, at Roanoke Island. For this week's blog post, students should write about what they believe happened to the 100 plus settlers who disappeared. Students should put forward a theory and then back it up with evidence from class. This topic should be at least 4 paragraphs in length, with 6-8 sentences per paragraph.
