Great Day 1 of Testing

Yes, I am so proud of these kids as for the most part they did great on their MAP reading test today. Ask your child how many points they went up and celebrate!! Tomorrow we will do the Math test. I am so excited for these results. Once again, I will give them their fall score in the morning and they have to make at least an 8 point gain from fall to spring so they will see if they reach that goal as they finish their test. Spring pictures came home today. These were not purchased by you yet so if you choose to purchase some or all of them, please see the enclosed envelope sheet for prices. If you choose to purchase some of them, you send back the money for those and the pics you don't wish to get and if you don't want any, just send the whole packet back. Does this make sense-hope it is clearer than mud!!! I told the kids that if they get any pics or money back here by Friday, they will get free money. If you looked at and talked about this with your child tonight, write pics in the planner for free money. Ask your child what they noticed about our cool worm farm and write it in the planner. Also, ask them 3 cool facts they learned about worms today. If they can, write worms in the planner. Remember the testing rules-good night sleep, protein breakfast and snack and we will see you in the morning. Also check out the green slips that came home today about the Family Science Night. How cool is this? It looks like lots of great things planned. Have a great night.
