Just a little reminder that student's final State Reports are due Thursday, April 30th. They are to be in a folder with a Cover Page, Outline (to be used as a table of contents), the typed Report, and finally, the Annotated Bibliography. The students have worked very hard and have done a great job. They are making a sign and trading cards to display with their reports, maps, & symbols for our State Fair. If they want to include other items that represent their state, please feel free to do so. The State Fair will be on Friday, May 15th. It will begin in the activity room at 10 a.m. with the students singing a few songs they have been learning. The students will then go to their classrooms where their presentations will be. We are excited to have parents see what we have been doing.
Our CRT testing will be the week of Monday, May 11th thru Thursday, May 14th. Students are encouraged to get plenty of rest and eat a good dinner and breakfast each of those days so they can do the best work possible. They may also bring a healthy snack and juice to eat & drink on our break each of the testing days. I will have a few things available in case they forget. A real favorite of testing is the chance to chew gum!! Students can bring and chew gum during the tests. Believe it or not, it has been shown that students can concentrate more and do better on testing if they are allowed to chew gum.
