Howdy all, and thanks for checking in. The kids were assigned a collaborative presentation project for next Friday. Be sure to ask your child their subject matter, and how they plan on presenting their research.
I've got some bummer news to share. Our planned Sacramento trip is not coming together as planned. Sadly, the State Park reservation department cannot get us into more than a single historical site (of the four that we planned to visit) on a single day. I'd like to thank everyone for their support of the trip, and I am sorry to disappoint at this juncture.
Tonight, the kids are responsible for the following:
Fourth-
- Hm 16.1
- Saxon 91
- study for Friday's Terabithia vocabulary quiz
- completed 3rd draft of story to turn in
Fifth-
- HM 15.4
- Saxon 91
- study for Friday's Terabithia vocabulary quiz
- completed 3rd draft of story to turn in
Respectfully, Mr. Bryant

Howdy all, and thanks for checking in. I am still working to coordinate the Sacramento trip, and will keep you all in the loop as the details emerge. Thanks for your support with this trip, as I know it will be an amazing one.
The report card fall-out seems to be leaning toward the positive, and the kids and I discussed our need to renew our focus in this last stretch of the school year. As I wrote yesterday, we have much to accomplish, and I am looking forward to some amazing culminating activities and assignments that will both challenge and enrich the kids.
Tonight, the kids are responsible for the following:
Fourth -
- Saxon 89
- HM math 15.5
- Reflections practice book page 83
- continue with Terabithia vocabulary for Friday's quiz
Fifth -
- Saxon 89
- HM math 15.2
- Reflections practice book ch. 9 study guide
- continue with Terabithia vocabulary for Friday's quiz.

Monday
Howdy all, and thanks for checking in. I'd like to extend an official welcome to our third and final trimester together. Weird how incredibly fast this year is passing by. Monday Folders have report cards in them, so please take the time to review progress and concerns with your child. With few exceptions, grades remained strong during the second trimester, and I am pleased with the progress of the classroom. ***Please return signed report card envelopes ASAP *** We will be honoring student achievement next Friday, March 18th @ The Big Spin. In the meantime, I am pleased to note the following fifth grade students for their academics:
Honor Roll: Ian, CeCe, Kaylee, Kyle, Lucas and Sky.
Principal's List: Arielle, Ethan, Megan and Trevor.
With this third trimester upon us, the kids can look forward to an individual science project, an artist report, a class play / film, a classroom writing anthology and a classroom mural. Of course, these are all on top of our daily content studies! Yup, we are reaching for the moon and the stars.
The third trimester will see us move away from the grade-level reading anthology and into literature studies. Today we began our exploration of Bridge to Terabithia, a Newberry winner from 1987. Fourth grade can still look forward to Number the Stars and Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes, while the fifth grade can anticipate War Comes to Willie Freeman and a title TBD.
Tonight, the students are responsible for the following:
Fourth-
- Monday Folders
- Saxon 88
- HM 15.4 (if not completed in class)
- Terabithia vocabulary
Fifth-
- Monday Folders
- Saxon 88
- HM 15.1 (if not completed in class)
- Terabithia vocabulary
