Final posting of work...

Well - this is it.  We are down to the final days of work and assignments to be turned in.
I just want to say what a wonderful year it has been.  I have so enjoyed going through Literature and history with your children.  I learn so much from them and their reactions to things each year, and I count myself lucky to be in this position.

Here is a listing of what is left and when it is due.
**Check Cornerstone.  We are keeping it updated.  I will accept late work until the last day!!!
If your student completes something late, they must give it to me or send me an email to check Google Classroom, otherwise I will not know!


5th Grade Language Arts:

Thursday, May 12:  Final Novel test and vocabulary.  Vocab folders should be home!
Friday, May 13th:  Character book due - each student has created their own.
Tuesday, May 17th:  Group Pop-up book due.  We will have a Gallery Walk with these last two projects that day.  Both receive grades.

Monday, May 23: Fairy tales - Individual stories

5th grade Social Studies:

Thursday, May 12:  Traveling the Trail activity
                                  Individual presentations due
Friday, May 13th:  Note taking page from presentations due.  Students will begin these on Thursday and complete them on Friday.  They will have access to each presentation in their group to complete the note taking page.
Monday/Tuesday, May 16-17:  In class we will go over Chapter 18 together.  We will be doing some work from the workbook.  This will prepare us for our upcoming field trips.


6th Grade Literature:  All groups have completed reading their novel.

Thursday/Friday of this week they will complete their classwork - Blogging and respond, journal and discussion.  These will both receive grades along with a quiz they have already taken.
Please Check Cornerstone to make sure that it is all complete!

Monday/Tuesday, May 16-17th:  Final evaluation of the novel as well as vocabulary.  Vocabulary folders should come home over the weekend to study.

After that we will use our remaining time to complete their group final project - A Game board based on the novel they read.  We hope to have time to play the games and evaluate them.


Thank you for all your support this year.  It has been wonderful sharing with your children.  I will miss the 6th graders after 2 years, and I look forward to working with the 5th graders again in Literature!
Mrs. Brown
