Fifth Grade Classroom
The Island Prep Elementary journey culminates with Fifth Grade.
The Island Prep Fifth Grade classroom offers a challenging, yet stress-free academic program designed to foster academic excellence and meet individual student needs, nurturing each student’s natural curiosity and sense of wonder. Students in Fifth Grade are encouraged to think creatively and challenge themselves and their peers to reach new levels of achievement.
Island Prep Fifth Grade emphasizes individual development and self-responsibility. Fifth-grade students are encouraged to become positive members of the school community and community at large, as well as active participants in their own learning. Our outstanding teachers emphasize higher-order thinking skills, critical thinking, and problem-solving. Students are driven to challenge themselves and think outside the box as they prepare to transition to Middle School.
Fifth Grade Enrichment Classes
Our Enrichment Program takes a thematic approach to the arts, sciences, technology, music, and much more. In a given week students will be found studying Vikings, their culture, geography, and environment of the Scandinavian region, the music they played, the artistry in their carved ships. Another week maybe the study of Peruvian tribes that live on islands made of reeds, students gathered cutting from the school grounds and made a science lesson to discover which plants would float the best when woven together.
