We started our NWEA testing for math today.  I was really proud of the students.  They worked very hard during our testing session.  We will finish the math testing tomorrow morning.  Reading will begin next week.

We are starting our study of the 50 States, their locations, and their capitals. We will break the country down in to different regions to learn them and quiz on each region weekly.  Then we will have a final test over all 50 to wrap things up. Today students were given a study guide and a map to begin studying the Northeastern States (9 states) and they made flashcards to help with learning the states and capitals. Everyone was supposed to bring these home today! Please encourage your child to study a little each night so that they will be prepared for Friday's first quiz!  Have a great night!
