Welcome to 5th Grade!!


Welcome to 5th grade!  I hope you have enjoyed your summer and are getting ready for the new school year.  I can’t believe summer is already almost over! 

This year is exciting because I will be your only teacher.  There will be no switch teacher.  The past three years I taught, Math and Science, but when I taught in Haverhill I taught all subjects. I am excited to teach everything again, because I miss teaching Social Studies and ELA!

We will be using this classroom blog daily!  It is where homework is posted nightly, as well as pictures and useful resources that we use in the classroom.  On the right side there is a place for your parents to enter their email and they will get updates when new posts are added.  

We have a lot of fun activities planned for this year.  I am very much looking forward to seeing you next week!  Enjoy the rest of your summer!
