A Peek at What We are Doing in Fifth Grade
What did you think of student-led conferences? Our goal was for students to start reflecting on and to begin to take ownership of their own learning. Although I feel like I could have done some more coaching before the conference to prepare the kids, I think each student did an amazing job.
On Halloween, Zach Elementary celebrates with an all-school costume parade that starts at 2:15. After the parade, the fifth graders will head to the cafeteria for an all-fifth grade Halloween party.
Please keep the following in mind when thinking of a costume. Costumes must be elementary - age appropriate - we have young children viewing the parade. Masks are acceptable for the parade only. This means that masks cannot be worn before/after the parade in the school. Students need to be able to dress in the costume independently; makeup and hair can be done prior to school. No toy weapons (follow the student code of conduct).
Dates to Remember:
Halloween - Parade starts at about 2:15. The All-Fifth Grade Halloween party will take place in the cafeteria immediately following.
No School - Friday, November 17th.
Report Cards for the 1st Trimester will come home on Monday, November 27th.
