Activities for 5th Grade – Science, Math, English and More
Fifth grade is a watershed year during which your child starts his journey towards becoming socially, emotionally and intellectually mature. He is on a formidable yet exciting social and academic learning curve. He needs to develop skills in various areas – reading, math, science and social sciences - and become a confident and independent learner. He is expected to become responsible for his education, reinforce already acquired learning and explore new areas of interest.
