By definition ADVENTURE is an unusual or exciting experience or activity. In our AdVenture program  we learn by doing unusual or exciting activities. We study Language ARts, Social Studies, Math, science and computers through the use of technology, collaborative projects, research on the internet, experiments and other hands-on activities and some exciting field trips.

 

Since we used technology to learn so much this year, I created this e-portfolio to tell about some of my favorite projects. Science and math are my favorite subjects. In this e-portfolio you will find a link to my project on the seasons for science. I enjoyed this project in particular because I worked really hard on it. 

 

The math project I linked to my portfolio is the one we created to study volume and surface area. I espeically liked this project because it combined two of my favorite things--math and minecraft!  We often get to do fun projects like this in math. 

 

One of the most interesting classes we get to study in the AdVENTURE program is Globaloria. Most 5th grade students don't even get to play computer games, however we get to make games! Check out the link to my Globaloria page to see the exciting games I created!

 

Our Language arts and Social Studies core was the class in which we 5th graders spent the most time of the day. This was important because we had writing assignments in all of our subjects and language arts was where we learned writing.
