The fourth, fifth and sixth grades are invited to attend TCS's "Halloween Fun Night and the Haunted Hallway" 
Date:  October 28
Time:  6:30-8:00
Details:  $10 entry fee; wear costumes (choice) for a costume contest (many categories)



Fifth graders gather around the Bashaw maple tree to experience first hand the reading selection "Why Leaves Change Color?" After making some observations and having some fun, students returned to the classroom to read and then summarize an article about the changing color of leaves. The class wrote a 6 sentence summary. This exercise was the first of several lessons on summarizing nonfiction and fiction reading.
Fifth grade mathematicians consider a variety of methods for writing equations using the distributive property. The focus is not on the answer but the method!


When the sun came out last Thursday, so did grades 3,4,5 for lunch. All enjoyed picnicking and conversation on the patio and the lawn.
