Because of you, my 5th grade students now have access to engaging, high-quality grammar resources that connect directly to the novels we read and the history and science topics we study. Instead of practicing skills in isolation, students are now identifying parts of speech, correcting capitalization, and applying grammar rules within meaningful, content-based texts. This shift has made a noticeable difference—students are more engaged, more confident, and more willing to take risks in their writing.\r\n\r\nYour support has helped transform grammar instruction into something relevant and purposeful. My students are beginning to see how strong language skills help them communicate their ideas clearly across all subjects, from explaining scientific concepts to writing about historical events. These are skills that will stay with them far beyond 5th grade. Thank you for helping create a classroom where learning is connected, meaningful, and impactful.

The students made meaningful connections and were able to truly connect the science content that they had studied to real world activities. \r\nThe students continue to learn and want to learn more about the Triops and other aquatic animals. They were able to learn about Triop life cycles and also how best to take care of these animals to help them survive in our artificial habitat. They loved working with the animals and some even wanted to try their own kits at home. These materials also will allow for future classes to be able to complete this project in the future with a small refresh of some supplies.

We read and discussed the customs and traditions of the holiday. They made connections to the different books about Lunar New Year during our read alouds. It was wonderful to hear students share a connection from one book to the next. We also learned how to draw a dragon, and students were excited to create one of their own. Many looked up at our new hanging dragon for inspiration during the drawing session!\r\n\r\nStudents still continue to enjoy the books and read them. Each day we have time to look through books and read. Students pick a book that interests them. Many select the Lunar New Year books!

I took a photo of each child to send to their parents and will add one to their end of the year memory book. \r\n\r\nWe had a fun dog relay with bones and props to pick up along the way. We had a scavenger hunt in the garden to find 101 dogs! The last one was tricky to find but someone finally found it! We had a fun read aloud with the themed book, and students enjoyed creating their own dog art with stickers and crayons. The veterinarian kit was a big hit as well. It is still a very popular toy now! The bubbles and paw stamps were fun activities they enjoyed as well. \r\n\r\n I am definitely looking forward to this day next year to celebrate with another class.

The students loved the hands-on activities that supported the books that we read aloud and discussed to build empathy and compassion. The students used the mini story pieces to retell important parts of the story and to discuss the story with one another. \r\n\r\nWe really enjoyed learning about Valentine's day and creating cards for a local senior center. The students voted on a poem that we then looked over for sight words and spelling patterns/words that they could sound out and read. It was exciting to hear them read aloud a poem that they then wanted to share with someone for Valentine's day. \r\n\r\nStudents worked together to cut out poems to glue into cards. I helped them place the poem inside the card to glue. With the help of a few big buddies kindergartners decorated the cover with heart stickers. We made over 125 cards to share with the senior center for their special Valentine's day gala. \r\n\r\nThe day I dropped off the cards, the lady at the front desk immediately smiled and thanked me. I shared the news with my class and a few shared they started making their own cards to mail to a senior in their own family. \r\n\r\nMy students loved making the cards and wanted to make another set of cards to celebrate spring and send well wishes to the senior center again. My students still talk about the cards they made for the seniors in our community.
