The 5th Grade is off to a wonderful start this year. After an adventure at Nature's Classroom, we wrote letters and drew illustrations depicting our time there.
In Social Studies, we are starting to learn about the ancient cultures of the early Americas.
In Reading, we are reading Number the Stars by Lois Lowry, which is about the German occupation in Denmark during World War II. A Danish girl, Annemarie, and her family must protect her best friend, Ellen, and her family, who are Jewish. Students are creating fun projects that go along with the story.
I cannot wait to see what the rest of this month brings!
