Zion Lutheran School

5TH GRADE CURRICULUM

We offer a combined classroom setting for the 5th, 6th and 7th graders. Small class sizes lends itself to a lot of hands on group and individual projects. Students excel in this classical environment. The students strengthen their study habits while learning to work independently and in groups. Study skills that will be strengthened include note taking, study guides, organizational skills and time management all of which will benefit the student in the coming years.
