In this class, students will receive all the tools to be prepared for 5th grade by certified teacher. This class includes Math, Reading, Social Studies, English, Spelling, and Science. This class will ensure that students are having fun while learning. This is a homeschool class. This class is also open to those who may not be homeschooled. Lessons will be presented in PowerPoint form. Each class will begin with a journal. The journal will allow students to be creative and use critical thinking. Teachers will then move into the lessons for the week. Students are encouraged to participate in activities, group work, etc. 

Before enrolling in this class, please note that this class does not build on itself!!!!!! Therefore, this class is ongoing; parents can enroll in it as they see fit. 

Students can access several interactive learning websites, such as NearPod and Zearn. Zearn is an interactive website used to enhance our learners' math and will only be used in class. Learners will have homework through the interactive learning website, allowing me to give effective feedback to learners. 

Students will also have the opportunity to work on their critical thinking skills, problem-solving with their classmates, and practical communication skills through classroom discussion. 

I will ensure to implement arts and crafts as often as possible.
