Hello, Parents!
This week we took the Science and Social Studies MSTEP. We also learned about hooks and endings to make our argumentative essays better than before. In math, students are halfway through the unit. They took a formative test on Monday, so see how they are doing in the first half of this unit. Check with your student to see how they did. Also, students should be reading for 20 minutes every night. So please make sure students are filling out their reading logs each night. Also, please read the information about DOGS Tags. These tags will be a daily item that students will need to have. Here are some announcements for next week: Talent Show on Thursday, May 5th at 6 pm! Donuts for two dollars are happening next Friday, May 6th! Field Day Tuesday, June 14th! MSTEP Testing Dates:
