Welcome Back!!

Welcome back to school!

I am excited for a new year to start! Look back to the blog for updates in the classroom and announcements. Some information is already posted under Important Documents. Make sure to answer the poll question each week.

Updates

Any pictures from the class pages from the 2010-2011 school year can be found on that page. I combined all classes onto that page to have last year's information all in one area and to save space for new things next year!

I also added a calendar tab. Important dates will be added to that calendar later, so check back often for updates.

5th Grade WWII Glogster posters

Here is the final project of the 5th grade class. The students had time and resources to use for their facts. I checked over their facts and made grammatical, spelling, and punctuation corrections. I discussed their research and gave the students opportunities to find stronger facts. The project was worth 50 points. The students had to complete five categories, worth 10 points each.

• Title: cleary relates to topic, is easy to read, and spelled correctly.
• Content/accuracy: At least seven accurate facts are displayed on the poster.
• Graphics/relevance: All graphics are related to the topic and make it easier to understand.
• Mechanics: Capitalization, spelling, grammar, and punctuation are correct throughout the poster.
• Sources: All borrowed graphics have a source citation. Facts have a citation. Citation is easily found and readable.

Click on the student's name to see their online poster (glogster) of their Social Studies research project.
