Greetings on this beautiful and cool weekend. Fall happens to be my favorite season, so I'm enjoying every minute of it.
This is just a reminder that the CoGAT (Cognitive Abilities Test) will begin on Wednesday and continue through Friday. The ITBS (Iowa Test of Basic Skill) will begin on August 10 and continue through August 14.
The testing will begin shortly after 8:00 each morning. Our specials will be later in the day. Students will not be allowed to enter the class after the testing begins. They will be kept in the media center until the testing break. Thank you ahead of time for having your child well fed and rested.
The good news for students is...There will be no homework on testing days! I hope that the weather will be cooperative, allowing our "stars" time to relax and play.
Conferences are on the horizon, and I look forward to meeting with you. Letters will be sent home soon. Remember to let me know if you prefer a special day and time.
Thanks to all of you for helping your student with the subtraction timed tests. Our next math unit is subtraction with regrouping. If you need more practice packets, let me know.
Have a great week!
