We have begun a 30 book challenge in language class. I have gone over the rules with the students so they know how it will work. Each student has received a log to fill out throughout the year.
Good luck to everyone!!

Welcome Back!
I am very excited to get the new school year underway. I will be using this blog for the morning grade 5 group. Your child will have math and language with me in room 157 during blocks one and two.
Please check this site regularly for important reminders and updates. There will be lots of newsletters going home this week, so please ask your son/daughter to share them with you. Looking forward to getting to know you all :)
