Constitutional Convention

Our convention was a success! I want to thank all the parents for taking time to discuss the questions with your students. They were well prepared and we had a lively debate over most of the issues. Tomorrow we will be discussing how the constitution we made compares to the one that was actually created.

Halloween!

We had a great Halloween celebration on Friday. It started off with a fun parade. We had some really great costumes in our class. We saw Michael Jackson, a mummy, a granny, some sports players, a couple devils and angels, and many more! After the parade, we did some regular fifth grade stuff (you know, reading, writing and arithmetic). Then in the afternoon we had a fantastic party with a really exciting game, a yummy treat, a cute craft and some hilarious mad libs! This holiday could not be a success without the help of all of my parent volunteers. Thanks to all the parents who brought smiles (and blackened teeth) to my costumed pupils! Pictures will be coming soon!
