Inquiry

Just Plane Fun

The desire to simplify work leads to innovations.


SImple machines and inventions are the keys to this inquiry. How do we use them and what are some great inventions?


Spelling and Reading

Reading

Beyond the Deepwoods should be done. We will use this novel to help jumpstart their Fantasy World project.

Spelling
We have started our new spelling program call Words Their Way.
There will be a spelling test on Friday from their sort words.

Math

Math is always a fun and exciting class in 5B!

16 Questions here we come...
Boys should be studying their times tables at home in preparation for the 16 questions. The goal is immediacy for the times tables.

All the time spent doing 16 questions and mastering the times tables is paying off as everybody is having an easy time multiplying using 2 digits and decimals.
