After ISTEP

We are cruising through the ISTEP test. I am proud of how each student has really focused this week on the job at hand. It can become a long week in a very short amount of time but everyone is doing great. The sixth grade as been testing in the mornings while the 5th grade, because of the Science test, has been testing both in the morning and then in the afternoons. Thankfully, the weather has been great. We have had the chance to go out a few extra times to stretch our legs and get some of the jitters out of our system. We have one more full day tomorrow and then we coast on into the weekend.

Starting next week we will be getting into our normal weekly routine. We are going to be starting Science and Social Studies as well as Literature Groups soon after. I will also be sending home Midterm Grades at the beginning of next week, hopefully on Monday or Tuesday. After checking those out if you could please sign them and send them back to me. Thanks.

Finally if you haven't noticed I added a couple things to the side bar to your right. There is a fun poll question you can vote on as well as our new scrolling marquee.
