Jumping Back to Work!

Jumping back to work and in this case jumping on the boat! Here is a picture of our grade 5's being introduced to our new Social Studies unit: Explorers and Vikings. Students measured out the size of the standard Knarr ship that the Vikings used and while "sitting in the boat" we talked of the hardships these people endured.

We also jumped back into our usual routines of spelling, Daily 5, novel study and daily worksheets this week and we will begin our new Science unit of Weather tomorrow.
