Snack Policy |
| Students are permitted to bring
in snacks that have nutritional value. It is encouraged that students
bring in snacks that are healthy...low in fat, sugar, and sodium.
If a student is bringing in a drink, it may not be in a can or
glass bottle. Students are permitted to bring in water in plastic
bottles for use throughout the day. If a student brings in juice
with their snack, it is encouraged that it is 100% juice, with
no sugar added. The health of our students and your children is
extremely important. Providing them with a healthy snack will allow
them to stay focused and do their best work throughout the day.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding the fifth grade
snack policy, please do not hesitate to contact your child's teacher. |

| Fifth Grade Curriculum |
The South Brunswick School District Curriculum being taught at the fifth grade level integrates the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards (NJCCCS) with developmentally-appropriate concepts. We teach for deep understanding of the "big ideas" in each content area, and we encourage students to wonder about the "essential questions."
Technology is integrated into instruction in meaningful ways. Students and teachers use digital tools and information to solve problems individually and collaboratively to create and communicate knowledge. (NJCCCS 8.1)
