Two STAAR Tests finished and one more to go. As we approach our Science STAAR Test on Thursday, the 26th of next week, we are preparing with additional Science Labs with Mrs. Savarese. We will go to Science Lab each day this week and cover the more difficult Science concepts for review. We continue to review in class as well. We Tested for water retention in different types of soil yesterday and today discuss inherited versus learned traits, including behaviors.
Thank you to all of you who were able to volunteer to chaperone our Arboretum field trip. As some of you know, if you were approved through VIPS last year, you still need to update to be current for this year. We will have a 5th grade field trip to Regal Ranch on May the 24th and some other 5th grade activities on campus. If you are at all interested in chaperoning, please check with the office to be sure you are current with your VIPS status.
Stanford testing will be the week of May the 7th and have testing each morning. You can keep this in mind when scheduling any needed appointments so that students do not miss any testing. We know that it is sometimes unavoidable.
REMINDER- 12:00 Dissmissal tomorrow and there will be no extended day
Social Studies/IB Unit of Inquiry-
We have finished up Urbanization and have moved on to World War I, The Great Depression and the Roaring Twenties. We will be covering mapping skills starting next week. This will help in our review for Stanford.
Reading-
Book Clubs continue with a focus on Reading Comprehension strategies and Literary Devices (alliteration, meaphor, paradox, imagery, personification, understatement, hyperbole, simile, foreshadowing, onomatopoeia and rhyme). Modeling and think alouds are done through our classroom read aloud.
Math-
We have covered all of the 5th Grade Curriculum for Math. We are currently covering and reviewing 5th Grade and beyond for Geometric figures. Extensions to 6th grade are covered in area and circumference of a circle and cylinders. We will be meeting for Math on Thursday only of this week, so student will probably not be coming home with Math homework this week.
Roberts Idol-
Students interested in auditioning for Roberts Idol have been signing up with Mrs. Audi at recess time and auditions will be held on May the 1st and May the 3rd after school. If your student has not let you know, they should know when their audition is.
Carnival will be Saturday, May the 5th from 10-2:00. Can't wait to see you there.

Blog Updates 2/13/12
Camp Read A Lot and Valentines Party Tomorrow!!!
Camp Read A Lot-
Students can come ready to be comfortable with a pillow, blanket and in comfortable clothes, even pajamas. We will be reading from about 9:45-11:25 and then from 1:20-2:00.
We will be having our Valentines Day Party from 2:00 until 2:45. If students are bringing cards, please have them bring for everyone in the class. They do not need to put any receiver's names, just who it is from. Thank you to Saba Kapadia for organizing the party for us!
Reading- Well, as you may have heard, we are on our 2nd book club book and will be continuing throughout the Spring Semester, attempting to get through a book about every week and a half. In addition, we continue to practice test taking strategies and practice with comprehension passages. I ask for students to find evidence for their answers in the text. Even some of the more proficient readers are not attending to the text. We are reviewing as a class and will be taking a STARR Benchmark test next week. We will analyze individual performances and address strengths and areas for improvement.
Language Arts-
We have just completed our IB Unit of Inquiry on the use of powerful words to influence others. The students did a great job dressing up and speaking as the Historical Figure in our Living Museum on Wednesday of last week. We will be posting photos and work samples on our 5th Grade IB bulletin board soon.
IB Unit of Inquiry-
Our next Unit of Inquiry will involve Social Studies and the 5th grade teachers are meeting all day on Wednesday of this week to plan and solidify this next unit.
Science-
We have begun Earth Science. The following concepts and vocabulary are being reviewed and learned: Rock Cycle, Earth's Layers, Tectonic Plates, Earth quakes, volcanoes, landforms, water cycle, erosion and weathering. We should be finishing up in one week or so and then moving onto Life Sciences. Life Sciences are an area of focus in 5th grade. More news to follow on this subject in the future.
Social Studies-
We have arrived at the Civil War and will spend about 2 weeks on the subject. We are also looking forward to continuing with the Industrial Revolution, urbanization and Immigration.
Math-
All the Math Classes are currently covering conversion of measurement within the same system, customary to customary and metric to metric. This is for length, Mass and capacity. Again, we will have a STARR Benchmark next week in math and analyze student performance by objective.
Field Trip in April to the Arboretum! Yes, we are going to the Houston Arboretum. It is a great trip and we will need 3 chaperones for our class. Any Volunteers? It is April the 11th. Please let me know if you are able to help out.
Until Next time,

Blog Updates for January 17, 2012
Hello to All,
Students are back from break and into the swing of things. We have started new areas of study in Science and Social Studies and we are moving on in Math. Reading clubs coming up next week as well.
Updates:
Math-
Students in Ms. Schilmoeller's, Mr. Shahriari's and Mrs. Audi's classes have been focusing on fractions (including decimals and percents)and data analysis through graphs and will be starting some prealgebraic skills with exponents, order of operations, positive and negative numbers. Ms. Rivers's class has been focusing on Division with some review of previously learned skills. We will be moving on with measurement and conversion of measurement later this week.
Science-
We have completed types of energy and we are now starting to learn about sources of energy. Heated feelings and debates have been discussed regarding fossil fuels and forms of alternative energy.
Social Studies-
As many of you may have heard from your children, we have just finished the formation of our U.S. Government, The Constitution and Bill of Rights. Fifth graders are definetely keyed into civil rights and issues relating to individual rights. I am enjoying their enthusiasm. We are starting Westward Expansion, including from the Native American perspective and will be watching some PBS videos on Tecumseh and The Trail of Tears. Basically, we are covering expansion and how technological inventions started changing the culture and way of life up until the Civil War.
Reading-
We will be starting reading clubs next week and students are choosing novels this week. I will update you more later in the week.
IB Unit of Inquiry-
I Have a Dream
Central Idea:
People use effective words to persuade others
An Inquiry Into:
• Influences impacting a speaker’s words
• The intended and/or perceived meaning of a speech
• Effective presentation skills
As part of our newest planner, we will celebrate with a living museum on February 8. Every student will come to school “in character” dressed as an important figure in U.S. history. As you select your choice, please keep in mind that this planner is a study of effective words, so it is critical that your person has a famous speech or quotations from which you can work.
By next Monday, January 23, please select your person. They need to be a historically significant American who is no longer living (please see suggestions on the reverse side of this paper). Please bring in a brief history of the era in which your person lived, a copy of their speech, and a picture of this person. We will NOT be doing detailed biography studies of this person; instead, we are trying to learn about what was happening in the world in which they lived and how their speech fit into this era and their objectives. For example, for MLK, we would need information related to the civil rights era, and his role in the issues of that time.
Remember, this information is needed by next Monday, January 23.

Camp Updates
All the 5th graders have definitely settled in at camp. They got right to the activities yesterday afternoon and continued into the late evening. There was horse back riding, archery, fishing, canoeing, just to name a few. Activities continued this morning and the sun warmed things up quite a bit. Due to the cold weather last night, many activities were moved inside and for outside activities, staff was prepared with opportunities to warm up. For example, while waiting for horse back riding and getting instructions, sleeping bags were wrapped around everyone. The cabins have heaters and for those students who do not have enough warm clothing, camp has extras to let students use. I have included some pictures to let you see how everything is going. I will continue to keep you updated as I learn new information.
This was my first experience at the Outdoor Education Center and I was impressed with all the staff I interacted with. The facilities are well maintained, clean and warm. I am planning on staying at the camp for longer the next time Roberts 5th graders attend! Your children are in good hands. All my best, Carol Rivers

Wow! Students Are Busy.....
Reminders and calendar Updates
Picture Retakes are tomorrow for those who returned their photo pack.
Book Fair this week and our class will attend the book fair on Thursday afternoon.
Family Night at the Book Fair will be Wednesday night from 5:30-7:30- We hope to see you there
*Camp update- We know that many parents have questions about camp. Permission Slips went home in Tuesday folders last week. Many of you have already returned these, thank you. More information will be going home in the Tuesday folder tomorrow and if you still have questions after that, we will be having a parent meeting on Wednesday night, same night as Book Fair, at 6:00.
Math-
Students in all four classes have been working on fractions over the last week and a half. Fifth graders need to be able to generate equivalent fractions, simplify (reduce) fractions, convert mixed numbers to improper fractions and improper fractions to mixed numbers, find equivalent fractions to decimals, compare fractions and use these skills to solve word problems. Some of the prerequisite skills include identifying factors, common factors and greatest common factors. Some classes will start division over the next week, Ms. Rivers class will continue with fractions.
Social Studies-
We have finished the American Revolution and taken a final test. We are putting further studies on hold and focusing on Exhibition over the next week and a half. Once students are finished with Exhibition products (trifolds, power points etc.), we will continue with the New Nation. This will include, events that led from the Articles of Confederation to the creation of the U.S. Constitution and the establishment of the U.S. government (Bill of Rights, Checks and Balances etc.), Identify contributions of James Madison and Roger Sherman who helped create the U.S. Constitution, summarize events that led to the creation of the Constitution.
Science-
Matter is complete and we have begun the study of Energy. Students will need to understand the following vocabulary:
energy
potential energy
kinetic energy
work
forms of energy- define and give examples of: mechanical, radiant (light), sound, chemical, thermal/heat, and nuclear/atomic
static electricity
current electricity
conductors
insulators
electrical circuits
closed circuits
open circuits
reflection
refraction
opaque
translucent
transparent
In addition to defining, students need to identify everyday examples and how they work. Important concepts: Energy cannot b e destroyed or created, only changed and give examples and how light and sound travel. This will all lead us to sources of energy in early January.
Exhibition-
Students are done with note taking, have planned their actions and have started their product. They are very busy!!! I am requiring that all the visuals that are to go onto tri-folds be complete before they bring in tri-folds. This will vary based on the group. Students can start bringing in on Wednesday and I can find a place to store these. Exhibition is currently our Reading and Other Language Arts as they are reading and interpreting non-fiction text and writing. They are doing a great job and continue to be enthusiastic about their topics.
Exhibition will be presented two dates and times. The first, will be on Wednesday, the 14th of December from 6:00-7:00 in the evening and the second on Thursday, the 15th of December from 1:30-2:30
If I do not update the blog before Thanksgiving break, have a safe and wonderful holiday.
