5th grade took a short trip to our city hall today to share things they are learning about with local senior citizens. It's always fun seeing our students interact with others!
Welcome to Leeton Elemtary's "A day in the life..." This week our featured class is Miss Bays' 5th grade!
We started our week off with DARE on Tuesday morning, as we do each week. This was our last DARE lesson before our graduation in a few weeks!
This week in ELA we worked on our vocabulary words for the week and identifying the theme of stories. On Tuesday, we worked on using our vocabulary words in sentences. Students were to go to each vocabulary word that was hung on the wall, and use it in a sentence. We then read a story with those vocabulary words, and identified the theme, or lesson of the story. Students filled out graphic organizers to help keep their thoughts in line. Today, students played a Blooket review game to review their learning before they were tested on their comprehension of the vocabulary words and the story.
In social studies, we studied the events leading up to, and the reasoning for the Declaration of Independence. Students read to better understand the Declaration of Independence in their textbook, and then today they wrote a break up letter to King George III and Great Britain from the point of view of the American Colonists. We learned how the British were taxing lots of different goods, closing ports, and sending redcoats in to stop colonists from moving west, as just a few reasons for the “break up”.
In math, we are learning all about adding and subtracting decimals, and sequences. Lastly, students ordered off of a pretend menu and were asked different questions, making them add and subtract money. This gave them a taste of a real world situation!
It was a great week in 5th grade!
