Hi grade fives!

What wonderful work you have done on 'If I Were Principal For a Day'!  Let's all try a little harder to remember the correct usage of "their", "there", and "they're".  Take a peek at BrainPOP for some grammar tips and a whole lot more!  This will be one of many valuable resources in your reading and writing travels.

Dear students,

As we continue to read 'Ten Marks and a Train Ticket', I encourage you to watch the video below, featuring interviews with authors Susy Goldstein, Gina Hamilton, Wendy Share, as well as Benno himself.

Our visit to the R.O.M. this week allowed us to see some rare artifacts and learn more about this fascinating ancient civilization.  If the mummies were particularly interesting to you, perhaps you would like to try your hand at Mummy Maker!
