Welcome Time Travelers!
PCES Fifth Grade Students,
This year you will be reading a number of books of historical fiction and nonfiction in Reading Class which have settings and characters that relate to the events you will be studying in Social Studies. As you browse through this Web Site you will find some quick facts, graphics, videos, books, and Web links that will help you better understand the historical events you will be reading about. I think you will find these resources can be used as great references in your Social Studies research projects. Your teachers have selected some interesting books to share with you, and I hope they will spark your interest to investigate our fascinating U.S. History. - Ms. Walker |

You will take this journey through history as a time traveler. As you travel through time you will have the chance to share some of the same experiences as the characters in the books you are reading; in the trenches of World War I, the battlefields of the Civil War, at the Home Front during World War II, and as a participant in the Montgomery Bus Boycott in 1955. |
Okay Time Travelers, it's time to set your course back in time .
