Our publication celebration:  Students read their narratives to an appreciative audience of the principal, teachers, parents, peers, and siblings.

We also learned today that our websites were accepted by Information Design Systems (IDS) as examples of high quality upper elementary school work. December 6 was quite a day for the LES Fifth Grade!

Then it was back to the Art/Science room for a celebration!  Thank you parents for bringing delicious food and drink!

Our Geography research on five of the Earth's continents is nearly complete!  We have created web pages on Asia, Europe, Africa, South America, and Oceania/Australia.
We are being evaluated as a possible model school for high quality upper elementary student work by Information Design Systems (IDS).  We will find out this week if our school is chosen based on the work of this year's fifth grade class.
Check out the websites!
