Snow? Really?

Wow, sometimes I still forget I am back in New England, and we can get snow in almost-Spring. What a day! And it would have been the first day of MCAS. MCAS will now be this Thursday, and next Monday, the 25th.

Homework for MCAS week

The only homework coming home this week is word sorts for Words Their Way - our schedule is on track. Thank you!

MCAS Week

Well, the time is upon us - MCAS week! Testing for Reading Comprehension will be Tuesday and Thursday. My suggestions are to have your child have a nice breakfast with lots of protein, and get plenty of rest the night before. Our students have had lots of practice with sample tests and I think they all feel confident going into the test. It is normal to be nervous, but I just ask each student to do his or her best. Good luck!
