Test Review

Starting this Thursday, I will be sending home your child's 5-A-Day and Daily Language from the week. This way, you can review the week's work with your child before they take the test on Friday. I will also send home the chapter review on the weeks that we have a math test. So you know, each day we review the Daily Language and 5-A-Day. The students mark how many the got wring but it does not count towrads their grade. This allows them to know what areas they are strong in, as well as where do they need to pay closer attention.
