Tomorrow we will be learning Halloween science and students will have a decoration to bring home!
This week’s spelling words and weekly letter
Please be sure your 5th grader is sharing their weekly letter with you, asking you to sign it, and putting it back in their homework folder to return to school. When they turn in their letter Monday mornings they get two separate grades, one is a homework grade and one is a Language Arts grade. The weekly letter needs to get turned in to be graded!
