What+to+Expect


 * ====== Instead of Social Studies, you will learn about American History. This is very exciting because you will find out about the history of our nation! ======
 * ====== We will be using the Storytown series for teaching reading. If you attended Vance Elementary last year, you should be familiar with this series. Our vocabulary and spelling words will go along with each story. You will also learn reading skills during each story. ======
 * Expect to be challenged. Nothing is more rewarding than learning something new, working hard to do your very best, and knowing that you did a wonderful job. It's no fun when things are "too easy."
 * ===== To have an even better idea of what will be learned in 5th grade, visit the [|Alabama Course of Study] . This website lists the objectives to be mastered in each grade. This is what I use in planning my own lesson plans. =====
