Stache of the week

Brenton

End of the 3rd nine weeks!!

I can't believe it, but this Friday is the end of the nine weeks....only one more!! :(

In Science we have moved on to Sound and next week is Light. Then we'll do Motion to finish out 5th grade stuff...then onto full review!

We really only have about 4 weeks until the OAAs, so we've already started reviewing.

In math we still need to finish up fractions and do some measurement and geometry.

In LA we need to finish figurative language then do text features and point of view.

So crazy!!! Spring break is coming soon too.

Keep bringing in Pennies!!!

Big chapter test in science Tuesday!

Math = fraction operation word problems.

LA= figurative language (similes, metaphors, idioms, personification, alliteration, onomatopoeia).

If you're willing to donate dry erase markers for the class to use that would awesome!!!!!
