Dear Families,
Starting on Tuesday our class will begin participation in the statewide standardized testing. This test is being taken by all students grades 2-8. In fifth grade the focus will be on Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. We have spent some time preparing for this in the past few weeks, so they will be familiar with what they will be seeing.
Make sure that you get to school on time. Be sure that your child gets plenty of rest the night before. Also make sure your child is eating breakfast in the morning. Many of my students complain of being hungry in the morning because they are not eating breakfast. It makes it real difficult to learn on an empty stomach!
