February News 

It looks as if we are surviving the winter and students are hitting the books as they prepare for the rapidly approaching MSA tests. Students continue to prepare in their classrooms and learn “best practices” for test taking.
Students are beginning their next big project, The Famous Birthday Bash, assigned February 6th. Students will research famous African Americans who made positive contributions to history. Students will do the majority of this project in reading class but can also work at home to gather resources. We will do our best to get computer lab times each week, as well, but any research that can be done at home is appreciated. We will discuss and go over each section in class before it is due. There will be weekly deadlines to help keep students on track.
All classes will hold a Birthday Bash, where students will dress up as their personality and give an oral presentation, followed by a birthday party! All parties will be planned and executed by the students. The Birthday Bash project is due and will be held the week of March 26th in homeroom classes. The exact day and time will be determined by individual classes.

Thanks for your continued support!
-The Fifth Grade Team
