Today was a very groovy day! We spent the day celebrating the '60s, the time period of our recently finished novel 'The Wednesday Wars.' What great fun! Students and teachers dressed for the day in our best '60s outfits! We visited a variety of stations where we learned about history, technology, music, art, entertainment, and life. Our parents really supported us through donations of treats, paper products, historical information, and TIME! It was a great team effort! Everyone seemed to enjoy the day and learn a few things along the way.
Have a great weekend! Relax!

Be sure to share your group pictures with your parents/guardians!

Day #3 - Going Strong!


We are now nearing the end of P.S.S.A. Testing. Today, we completed Section 4 - Reading and Section 5 - Math. Tomorrow, we'll finish up with Section 6 - Reading! Hang in there! Get some fresh air, rest, and eat a good breakfast in the morning. We are nearing the finish line, but we're not there yet!

Day #2...Whew!


Day #2 and we're going strong! This morning we took Section 2 - Reading and this afternoon, Section 3 - Math. It was a long day of testing, but the breaks and drinks helped everyone to do what needed to be done.

Homework:
All D.A.R.E. work won't be due for another week. Hopefully, none of it will need to be taken home due to having some extra time between tests.

REST AND EAT A GOOD BREAKFAST! ANOTHER BIG DAY IS JUST AROUND THE BEND!

One Day of Testing... Done!


Congratulations to the class for working hard during the first testing session! We completed Section 1 - Math this morning, and we're feeling good about it. Tomorrow, we have Sections 2 and 3 - Reading and Math on the schedule. Our only homework assignment this evening is to relax, go to bed at a decent time, and eat a good breakfast so that we can give our best. Enjoy the longer period of daylight tonight after school!

Time was given in class to complete the D.A.R.E. work due on Wednesday.

THANK YOU TO CISPO FOR THE WATER WE ENJOYED DURING TESTING! IT WAS JUST WHAT WE NEEDED!
