Math:

The math test for chapter  14 would be scheduled for April 29th the same day as the CLT.  I do not want the kids to have to take a math test the same day.  We will be having a chapter 14 and chapter 15 combined test on May 6th.  May 3rd will be a review day of chapter 14 and 15.  I will send home the practice test next week.

Composition:

We will be writing the rough drafts this week.  Next week they will write the final draft at home as we will not be doing IEW at school because of the CLT.

CLT Testing:

Next week will be taking the CLT. It take two days to complete. The test will be approximately half each day. We will complete part one and take a small break. Then complete part two. While this is low stakes testing, it is important that your child come to school each day on time and prepared to do their best. Please make sure that your student is well rested and has eaten a good breakfast. 

Please bring quick, easy snacks, filled water bottle, and a book for your child to read if they finish a section early.  Any snack that requires a spoon or fork, such a yogurt or fruit cups, should be reserved for lunch. Your student’s snacks should be packed separate from their lunchbox so that they can quickly access them.

Math:

The rest of the year the chapters in math are short, most only lasting a week to two weeks. With us testing at school I may only have one or two class periods with them before the next test. It is important to make sure that your child has a good grasp of what is being taught in each unit.

Composition:

We are starting a new unit called inventive writing.  In this unit students do not have a source text or even pictures to look at.  That KWO is formed by asking good questions.  Key words for the outlined are found in the answers to question.  Be patient, this is a skill that will take time to perfect.  We will be spending three weeks on this lesson 27 and 28.
