We had an amazing day. This morning I was out of the classroom with District Writing. I had the best report from our guest teacher! Great job class!
Next week we start the MEAP test. The kids will be testing on the 9th, 10th, 11th, 16th, and 17th. Please make sure your child brings in good books or magazines. The state law mandates that if a student finishes the test early during any testing block, the only thing he/she may do is read. They may not draw or read on an electronic device. In fact, they can’t bring any electronic devices into the room (this is not a rule I usually have so it may be a challenge at first). I took the kids to the library today and will be encouraging them to check things out, but I am hoping you will touch base with them as well. Thank you!!!!
