DOES IT MATTER?

Fifth graders just finished a unit study on MATTER. 

MOVING TO MIDDLE SCHOOL

Next year our 5th grade students will be moving up to middle school.  Recently, counselors came from both Independence Middle School and Great Neck Middle to give the students an overview of the school and to ask questions.  The 5th graders had lots of questions.

WELCOME!

Our School
Hello World,
This is our first attempt at blogging and we are excited about exploring this new technology at Thoroughgood.  Please bear with us as we work through this electronic maze.  Our students are eager to share their thoughts and experiences with readers! 
We are from Thoroughgood Elementary School in Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA.  Our school was named after Adam Thoroughgood who lived in this area in the 1600’s and his home, which is still standing, dates as  the oldest brick home in America.
