Today we had a wonderful in-school field trip with High-Touch, High-Tech. Ask your child about what they learned during this field trip.

Tomorrow is our first day of Milestone testing. We are taking the Reading portion of it. Please make sure your child has gotten a good night’s sleep and has a good breakfast to start the day.

Thursday we are taking the Writing portion of the test.

Your child has worked very hard this year and shouldn’t stress about the test. Please give them wonderful words of encouragement before they leave and I will be sure to do it here as well.

 

The only homework they have this week is to READ and enjoy the outdoors. J

 

Also, we are still in need of a few empty spools that are usually used to hold ribbons.
