Social Studies
The overall emphasis in 5th grade Social Studies is on the history of the United States, with extensive focus on the following units: exploration of the new world, settling of the American colonies, American Revolution, and the Constitution.
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.
