Mathematics - The overall objective of fifth grade math is reviewing basic facts, place value to millions, addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of whole numbers and decimals.  The introduction of fractions with like and unlike denominators in addition and subtraction.  Problem solving is performed in all operations.

Reading - Fifth and Sixth grade reading is a logical extension of the K-6 program at the Woodland Elementary School.  In addition to emphasizing basic reading skills, attention is focused on comprehension, the promotion of broader reading interests, and the sense that reading is pervasive, that it affects everything we do.

The Fifth and Sixth grade reading program is "whole language" oriented, that is, it extends across the curriculum, involves extensive writing (journals, reports, essays), and encourages independent reading of library and paperback books.

Science - Live Science-vertebrates and invertebrates, Chemistry, Weather, The Human Body, Physics, Astronomy, Energy, Geology, Botany.

Spelling - Spelling for grades five and six is a representation of the sounds of the English language.  It is a combination of many different types of language features.  There are consistent patterns for combining prefixes and suffixes within base words and roots.  Patterns are not based on sound alone.

Social Studies - The emphasis is on geography skills, critical thinking skills, study skills, and reading skills.

The study of America includes:  Ways of Indian Life, Europe's First Settlers, The Period of colonization, The English colonies, The War for Independence, Forming a New Government, Settling the West, The Civil War, Reconstruction, Industrial Growth, Cities, People, and Industry.

English - The organization and content of grade 5 & 6 English is to help students use language effectively and creatively in oral and written communication.  The program is designed to encourage students to practice and apply language concepts according to their needs.

Basic grammar and mechanics are stressed with a heavier emphasis on mechanics for use with editing skills and composition development.

Language study activities develop traditional grammar skills and build a foundation for oral and written expression.  Sentence study lessons integrate sentence structure and variety.  The composition of the writing process, and literary models by professional writers prepare students for independent and creative writing.

Handwriting - Handwriting stresses neatness, slant, spacing, size, and shape.  Legibility and neatness is emphasized in communication through the subjects.
