CURRICULUM CONNECTION
READING: This week we will be finishing our Greek Mythology unit. The students have been learning about character analysis, themes, and allusions. They have been LOVING the plays we have been reading!

SOCIAL STUDIES: We are learning about the Great Depression and the Stock Market Crash. Later this week we will do a simulation from the great depression.

SCIENCE: Students will begin to build their final jet toy this week. They have been experimenting with weights and different sizes of nozzles to build the best possible car for their group. Next Friday we will be racing them in the gym with the other 5th grade classes.
