Welcome to 5th Grade Language Arts! We will be delving into the exciting world of reading, writing, speaking, grammar, spelling, & vocabulary. I am so excited to share my love of all things Language Arts with you. I know that we will have an incredible year together.

Instead of daily Language Arts homework, it is my expectation that you will spend time each day reviewing class material, preparing for upcoming tests, and reading for ENJOYMENT! Below you will find a link for a homework reading challenge that we will be doing as a class during the school year (please note: this will begin when school starts and is not the same as our summer reading challenge). We will keep track of the minutes we spend reading outside of school and will keep a running tally of those minutes to display in the classroom. I can’t wait to see how many minutes we tally up throughout the course of the year!
