In the fourth nine weeks of this school year, fifth grade AIG will study algebra using the third book in the Hands On Equations series. They studied book one in third grade and completed most of book two with me in fourth grade. Book three deals with using negative numbers in algebraic equations. This will be a short nine weeks with testing, and field trips and other activities. Please make sure that you complete the middle school packet and return it to Mrs. Maples. The middle school AIG teachers are excited to meet all of our fifth grade AIG students.
