WIKIS Are Coming!

An exciting time is upon us!  Today students were introduced to a Wiki.  This is a collaborative learning opportunity using technology.  Please jump on board and encourage your child to share this with you.  Mrs. McKnight's Wiki address is http://mcknightlanguagearts.pbworks.com.  Mrs. Green's Wiki address is http://greenfifthgrade.pbworks.com.  We look forward to incorporating this new technique to make our learning relevant.

Kudos To Our 5th Graders!

A big congratulations goes to Pathik Desai, the winner of our 15th annual TSA Geography Bee, held Friday, January 10th.  Pathik participated along with fellow 5th grader, Grace Hiller, and 8 other 4th through 8th grade students.  Runner-up was fourth grader Darius Tamale.  Wow!  What an accomplishment for both students!
