About Mr. Wallace

This is my 16th year at Waggoner school and my first year teaching 5th grade. I am having a great time so far. I was Waggoner's computer teacher for 10 years and hope to include technology as much as possible into the curriculum.

Our Class

I have a terrific group of 27 fifth graders this year who are energetic and ready to learn.  They are really working together and helping each other as they learn all the fifth grade skills.  Our class has many strengths in a lot of different areas like reading, math, language, spelling, science and computers.
