5PA Update

Last week was a memorable week which I hope students will remember for years to come.  They were extremely invested in the process and took pride in their work. I was so impressed with their toothpaste making abilities, and all of the students were good sports when tasting their creations.  I even tried a few of the products!  If you ever find yourself in need of toothpaste, I'm sure that your child can provide you with this service for a minor fee.😁

This week, students will be taking a pre-assessment before moving into our first major literary piece.  Afterward, students will be reading a story entitled "The Hemulen Who Loved Silence". Each student will be responsible for completing text annotations during the upcoming week. The annotations will be linked to the Depth and Complexity framework. We will be exploring big ideas, perspectives, ethics, etc...  Please be aware if they do not complete these annotations during class, they will be responsible for completing them at home.  We will be spending 2-3 days on the annotation process.  

Please be on the lookout for the first quarter progress report which will be sent home on Friday, October 25th.
