My Project

Having access to quality novels and appropriate school materials is necessary in facilitating the growth of our students. All of these materials support the 5th graders in many ways including their social and emotional learning. By reading and reflecting on these novels, students will hopefully be able to relate to stories of overcoming difficult situations and working as a community. All of these stories are also in some way related to our school's general learner outcomes. The other classroom materials are used for whole group social and emotional activities that are essential to the growth of our students.
