Well, Spirit Week is over and now it's time to get SERIOUS! The big test is next week...and we are ready! Monday and Tuesday mornings your child will be tested on Reading skills. Thursday and Friday mornings your child will be tested on Math skills. We have been doing practice MSA problems all year, but have really hit them hard the past few weeks. I keep telling the kids the hardest part is the sitting and waiting quietly!!
Please remind your child to read carefully, look at all the answers before choosing, and reread to check! Also, a good breakfast and plenty of rest is a must!
Other than test taking next week, we will be working on our "Rocks, Soil, and Fossils" unit and writing some Poetry for a national contest.
I really need to remind some parents to have their child here at school on time. If your child doesn't ride a bus, he/she really needs to be in the classroom between 8:30 and 8:50. Anything later makes them feel rushed. Thanks...
Classroom needs: hand sanitizer, baggies, and it seems every child has run out of good pencils with erasers! We will supply new pencils for the testing, but your child really needs a couple extra.
Please remember: 3/19 Multicultural Fair

Have a wonderful weekend - I heard the sun will be shining!
