Learn about geometry, perpendicular and parallel lines, poetry, autobiography, fiction, the solar system, photosynthesis, the digestive system and the chemical properties of elements.
LearnAhead 5th grade program is meant for 9+ to 10 years age group children. This grade is
all about helping students practice, refine, and grow their skills. Students build on by
analyzing material in deeper ways and write structured, clear, and detailed pieces about a
variety of subjects. They are encouraged and expected to be more independent in their
learning.
They will begin learning some geometry, including the symmetry of shapes, the roles of
perpendicular and parallel lines, as well as how to use the formulas to calculate the volume
of geometric shapes.
The key features of the curriculum:
Students are asked to write for personal expression, be it poetry, autobiography, or fiction. Areas of study also include the solar system, photosynthesis, the digestive system and the chemical properties of elements. Students learn about the nation's history, are challenged to analyze what they have learned about the causes, implications and different cultures of the colonies and people who founded them.
