BOOK OF THE WEEK:  Theras & His Town by Caroline Dale Snedeker

Things to Remember for Grade 5:
·        All written work is to be done in CURSIVE.
·        All written work is to be done in PEN.
·        Only Math should be done in pencil.

**NEW** For This Week
We are going to try a new writing program called Writing With Skill (WWS).  It is by the same author that did WWE & FLL from last year.  There is no textbook – you will use the IPad to read your lessons and then use pen/paper for any work that you need to do.
