5th graders are tested on Science in the Spring of the year with the ISAT SCIENCE test. Science, starting this year, is taught by me rather than sending the kids out of the room to Mr. Shubert. It makes more sense for me to teach it because of the level of reading, comprehension, math, and other skills involved, for me to teach it in our 5th grade classroom. We can do more projects that go across the different curriculum.
We have new science textbooks and work books this year. It is all quite exciting.
I also went through some training with the STEM BUS USA over the summer and taught some coding, MCreator, and application development classes that I hope to bring into the classroom this year.
