Welcome to Mr. Smith's 5th Grade Class

This week is Capitol Tech in Atlanta, GA! We have two students representing us on Tuesday. They will be presenting the podcasts we created as a class to State Legislators in the Capitol Building! Eventhough only two children were able to go on the trip, this is a class project and a class success! Stay tuned for pictures and video clips from the trip! 

We will continue working on geometry in math, focusing on area and circles.  We will also finish working our way from World War I and World War II in Social Studies.

Be sure to check out lots of useful sites like our class blog, class podcast, and much more on the Class Links page. Also be sure to check out the new Announcement section with up to date information about school and class events! Feel free to leave any questions or suggestions there as well.
