It's been a great first couple months in fifth grade! From science labs to learning the historical data surrounding the plague and comparing it to Covid-19 impacts, we are stretching our brains! We've wrapped up several concepts in Math, including how to add and subtract decimals. We did some "real-world application" and balanced a checkbook with a transaction list. We ended October with some Minute-to-Win-It games and a visit to Silo Market for a sweet treat from Mrs. Olsen!
Congrats to Lili Pata, Veronika Hurst, Jocelynn Cranny, and Jordan Douglas on an excellent concert with the 2025 All State Choir and Orchestra!
