Social Studies

Over the last few weeks, we have learned about some of the events that increased tension between the colonies and England, and began looking at the first battles of the Revolutionary War.  We will now look at the Declaration of Independence and some of the major battles and events of the Revolutionary war. 

A Note About Interactive Notebooks:

​We will be creating Interactive Notebooks all year.  I introduce the Notebooks to the students within the first days of school.  This notebook is a great source  of guidance when studying for tests.  What students will create is their own version of a fifth grade text containing what they have learned and explored throughout the year.  Notebooks will go home with all students at the end of the school year.
