This Week's Update!

ELA
This week students will identity the difference between tone and mood in a reading selection. Students will also describe an author's purpose by analyzing the language of text. 








Social Studies
Students will continue to discuss the Great Depression by explaining the effects of the Dust Bowl. They will create displays for Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal programs.  The week will end with a review for an assessment on the Great Depression.  At this point it looks as though the final assessment will take place on next Tuesday. 


AVID
We just completed a binder check for each fifth grader and their binders were very impressive. Please replenish any supplies your child may need to be successful in the classroom.
