Dear Grade 5 Parents,
Happy Friday !
We have had a great first week in Grade 5. We have created our class rules, found out more about each other and settled in well to new routines.
In literacy we completed some poetry, a reading comprehension assessment and are starting the first writing assignment – a biography of a remarkable person.
The students will be bringing some information home about this writing project, it is due on the 22nd September.
In Numeracy each student has completed a Math Diagnostic, so I could work out the level I wanted them to start at. We are starting with Place Value – up to Billions and through to thousandths.
Each Friday I will email you and also put some updates on our class blog – www.fbcs.edu.ky/grade5
Here are some questions you can ask your child over the weekend –
1. What are your class rules ?
2. Which remarkable person are you going to find out more about ?
3. What is the expanded form of a number ?
Many Thanks for your cooperation in the education of your child,
Please feel free to email me if you have any questions.
