Welcome to 5th grade!!!
This year we will be learning about everything from ecosystems to forces and motion. We will be reading many exciting books, such as Thunder Rolling in the Mountains and The River Between Us. I am excited about being your homeroom teacher for language arts, science, and social studies. Mrs. Phillips is going to teach us how much we really apply math to our everyday lives. There will be lots of hands-on activities and active learning! Get ready and hang on tight for a great school year!
I welcome you to the fifth grade and I am so excited about this year!
