Welcome Back! We're taking the Achievement Tests!

REMINDER! REMINDER! ALERT! ALERT!

Tonight your child MUST get a good night's sleep.
Tomorrow morning your child MUST have a good, nutritious breakfast and arrive at school on time. We will do some relaxation/anti-test-taking anxiety exercises each morning before we take the achievements tests.

Here is the testing schedule:

Tuesday: Reading Test 9:00-11:30am
Wednesday: Math Test 9:00-11:30 am
Thursday: Writing Test 9:00-11:30 am
Friday: Otis Lennon Test 9:00-11:30 am

Please make sure that your child is well-rested and well-nourished each morning. It really helps to cut down on test-taking anxieties and also helps your child stay focused on the very tedious task of test-taking.

Countdown to Pesach

Glad to see that everyone survived the great Camp Willson experience. It certainly sounds like the kids had a great time. This week we are focused on practicing for the achievement tests and developing our class buisness "Havdallah Hits." As for homework - there will be no spelling/vocab. as we just have Mon.-Wed. of class time. Thursday we will have model seders. PLEASE LET ME KNOW if your child will be leaving early for Pesach break or returning late. Break begins Thurs. at 2:00 and school resumes Tues. April 29.

Homework: We will have some math pages to do. Please check student planners.

We will also have some classroom "Havdallah Hits" assignments. Again, please check planners as these assignments will be determined by what we accomplish in class


Have a wonderful Pesach!

Camp Willson...and then Thursday and Friday.

It's finally here! The big camping trip at camp Willson will be from Monday-Wednesday of this week. Be sure to double-check the list of "BRING and DO NOT BRING to camp" so that your child is prepared for this camping experience. As for homework and classwork: We will continue to prepare for the Ohio proficiency tests. Homework will be given Thursday night. The assignments are to be determined by the amount of material we cover on Thursday. Please check your child's planner for that assignment. There will be no spelling/vocabulary tests this week (due to cam) or next week (due to model Seders and Pesach break). We will resume spelling/vocabulary tests AFTER achievement tests.
