Wow this new job has been non-stop CRAZY!!! We had 5 SmartBoards go out on Monday among other technology issues in the school.
5th grade has been busy doing research and learning the proper way.
We talked about how there is more to life than google and explored these fun websites.
askkids.com
kidrex.org
dibdabdoo.com
cyberslueth-kids.com
Next week they will start explorer projects. I found this awesome website to get us started out with that. http://www.livebinders.com/play/play_or_edit?id=30692
We will be learning about Marco Polo, Christopher Columbus, Leif Erickson and many other famous explorers.
I ordered these sets of books from Capstone to help with this. We will then move on to studying the 13 colonies.
