Your homework is to study. Wait. What does that mean?

An inside look at study skills practice in fifth grade.

In fifth grade, we often ask our students to study.  Study for your math test.  Study for your science test.  Study your spelling or vocabulary words.  But what are we really asking?  Do we know?  Do our students know?

We have talked about certain study skills throughout the year, but as the 100th day of school came and went, and we inch closer to middle school, reinforcing these skills will become more and more vital to our students' success after lower school life.

Take a moment to review the same tips and tricks the girls reviewed this morning.  After all, a decent amount of "study" time often takes place outside of the classroom.
