I hope that everyone had a nice and relaxing weekend and was able to spend some time out in the beautiful weather we had.  Just a recap of what has been happening in our room and what is coming up:

Our Huggins 5th graders spent a fun-filled week last week in Science STAAR Camp learning, exploring, and reviewing for our test this Wednesday. I know that they are more than ready for this test and will do a great job.  Hopefully this is the last STAAR test they will have to take this year and that we had 100% pass the first administration!!!

This week we are also covering:

Math: We are gearing up for 6th grade math so we are now focusing on the gaps and topics that all 5th graders need to know before next school year.  We are covering financial literacy and taxes this week.

Science: all review this week over all objectives.

Social Studies: We are studying Ch. 20 in the History Alive book which covers Modern America.  There will be a quiz next week over this chapter.

Reading: We have been working on our writing skills and grammar skills.  This week we are doing an in-class project.

Friday is a movie day to let the students relax after finishing up all rounds of testing.

Thank you to all of the parents who volunteered for our Hands-On Science labs last week.  We appreciate all of you!
