Fifth grade during May!

In the month of May we are going to be taking many field trips. It is a l0t of fun for fifth graders and we are very excited about that. But we aren't very excited about leaving elementary school. some of the fun highlights for May and part of June are D.A.R.E graduation, j bizz town, como park, track and field day at Eastview, visiting the middle schools, and Nickelodeon University for patrols. We are very excited for these fun days in fifth grade and we are going to be missing all of the wonderful teachers and friends here!

MCA testing is coming up and we are stressed out about it because it's the biggest test of the year but it's a good thing that we are doing pretests to prepare for it.
