    Clip to ScrapBook
       
    I went from 3rd to 5th and found that there was quite a difference. The biggest was attitudes. Fifth graders have horrible attitudes, especially after the Christmas break. You have to deal with cliches, drama queens ("Bob" wants me to go with him, but I told him no and now he has everybody calling me a slut!) kinda things.

    The curriculum is more difficult and I had to "refresh", especially in Math - Prime/Composites, LCM, GCF, etc.

    Overall I have enjoyed my time in 5th despite the above. Most students work independently, and you can do some neat, creative stuff. The biggest benefit is ....5th graders get your jokes.
