Well, we have made it part way through week one. So far, so good! I have such a wonderful class! They are really sweet and I know that we will enjoy getting to know each other! Thank you for completing the forms that came home on Monday afternoon. I know it is a lot to fill out and many of you have more than one child which means even more forms!
We will take a Spelling Test each Monday morning. If a student makes a 90 or above on the pretest, then that student is exempt from the test on Friday. Whatever grade is made on the prestest will be the final test grade to go in the gradebook. Of course, if a student gets exempt, but wants to try for a higher grade on Friday, then that is acceptable too! If you see a spelling list glued into the "Saturday" section oft he agenda, then your child has a spelling test on Friday. No list... no test!
We will have a Lab Safety test on Friday. We discussed safety notes today in class and stapled the notes into our Science notebooks. Students were instructed to bring home the notebook to study. Notebooks must be brought back to school the next day if they are brought home. We will be working in the notebooks almost every day.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns!
I am looking forward to a fabulous year!!
Also, thank you for your overwhelming generosity of the donations from my wishlist. I appreciate it sooooo much!

Meet and Greet
I'm so glad that you were able to come to Meet and Greet! I'm so excited to be in 5th grade this year. I have some of my former students from last year and am looking forward to getting to know some new friends! I will be writing new posts every week and will notify you by email of new posts and pictures. It is very important that you read our class blog every week for updates! Please send me an email this weekend at khopkins@lcisd.org so I can add your email to my address book.
Here is a picture of our FABulous 5th grade team this year:
