Welcome to a New Year!!!

Happy New Year!

As usual a new year always causes us to reflect about our previous year, and it was quite a semester for fifth grade! We had outdoor education week at Manaboa. The fifth graders started to design the stage that will be built this spring. We explored rocks (we even ate some!) We read about Mr. Popper's Penguins, and we even survived fractions!

We also have a lot to look foward to this semester! We will study Native Americans, learning about their ways of life. Also, the fifth grade will study matter, light and sound.

Wow, we are in for another exciting semester!!!

Doulos of the Week

Our Doulos of the Week this week was Joel!!!

He has shown a true servant's attitude in our class!

A Brand New Year!

Welcome to a brand new year! The fifth graders this year are incredibly intelligent! They are going to give their teacher, Mrs. O, a run for her money!
We have learned so much so far! In Science, we have studied plants. We even had a celebration where we all ate roots! Now we are learning about the human bodies. There are more exciting details to come!
Fifth grade has also learned a lot in English. We built boats, and even had a poetry slam! Now we are reading Island of the Blue Dolphins.
What an exciting new year, we have ahead of us!!!

Doulos 5th Grade Student of the Week

The Doulos of the week is Yeudi Ramirez.
Yeudi is an incredibly dynamic student and was an easy choice for Doulos of the week.
Yeudi is a man after God’s own heart and is constantly sharing his faith and glorifying Jesus! All of the students and staff are blessed by his contagious joy.
In addition to his character, Yeudi is a straight “A” student.
