Long time, no blog!

Welcome back to our blog! This blog has been abandoned for a few years, but it's my hope to try and keep it updated! We are just getting into a new school year in 5th grade! I have a great class this year, and we are already having so much fun in 5th grade! Please check this blog for important, upcoming events at NGE, and in our classroom! Join us this evening for open house at NGE. Come by and visit your child's classroom from 6-7pm. See you then!

Back to School!!

Hi, everyone! The 2012-2013 school year is off to a great start! I will try to be more diligent with this blog and keep it updated throughout the year. My class will have a Spelling test this Friday. The Spelling list went home tonight. :)

A lot has happened since October!

It has been brought to my attention that I have neglected my blog. Time to update!

So, what's been going on in our class? Well, we currently have ISAT testing at NGMS. I hope all of my students are getting plenty of rest and eating a good breakfast before they come to school each day. If any parents would like to send a healthy snack or drink for the class during ISAT week, that would be great.

Next Tuesday, we will have a Science test. This test is over Chapter 7, Landforms, Rocks, and Minerals. A study guide will be sent home with the students on Monday.

I will do my best to keep the blog updated! I took a maternity leave in December and I am just now coming back to work. My little girl was born December 16. She and my son keep me very busy at home! I will leave you with a picture of her. She's a cutie!



Have a great week!

Science Test this week!

Fifth grade will have a Science test on Friday, October 28. This test is over Chapter 6. Students received a study guide today. They also need to use their Science notebook and Science book to study for this test. Good luck!

What's going on this week?
