Fifth Grade
Welcome to fifth grade!
We present a culmination of six years of learning. In fifth grade
we enjoy utilizing a hands-on approach to support our academic curriculum.
Reading is emphasized through the use of the Accelerated Reader program.
The Civil War is studied in social studies, and in science various units
such as living/nonliving things, light, sound, and geology are covered.
In order to enhance the learning experience many field trips are taken
during the school year. These field trips are designed to develop
an appreciation of the local natural resources. For example, a trip
to Jefferson National Forest allows our students to design and field test
science experiments. Throughout the year there are many contacts
between fifth graders and representatives of Christiansburg Middle School.
An important goal for all teachers and students is paving a smooth transition
from elementary to middle grades.
Meet the teachers...
