5th-hour labs are designed to help aid the initial stages of learning a language. The 5th-hour labs are a series of exercises coordinated with the textbook and teacher's syllabus and are meant to reinforce the lessons taught in that particular week. The labs are organized by class level and week. The teacher may assign one lab per week which can be completed here in the WSMC.

Labs may include activities involving word recognition, listening comprehension, grammar excercises, translations or even simple fill-in-the-blank excercises. The majority of the labs can be completed on any computer with internet access, but any lab requiring completion of GrammarTutor must be done here in the WSMC lab. The teacher may require the student to either print out the results of the lab or to save the file, and then email the file to the teacher.

All of the 5th-Hour labs are found here on the WSMC website. To obtain the username and password, on can either come into the lab or call to ask for the information.
