CRCT tutoring begins today. Please remember that if your daughter is staying and you are going to pick her up, you need to be here right at 3:45, or she will be sent to ASP. Thank you for your cooperation with this, and I also really appreciate you allowing your daughter to stay after school. I am hoping this tutoring will be beneficial.
Last week was benchmark testing. It was the last benchmark we will take this year since the CRCT is next quarter. I was happy with the way the girls performed on this. It also helped me see that we definitely need to go back and review our fraction work. :)
This Wednesday is the fifth grade writing exam. We have been working really hard on our writing skills, and I am anxious to see how they apply what they have learned this year. The test starts right at 8:15, so please make sure your daughter is present and on time Wednesday. The results of this test should be in in the beginning of May.
With testing last week, our schedule was a little off. We got to read out of our novel Bread and Roses Too almost every day, and we got to review our writing skills. This week we will get back on an almost normal schedule. We received CRCT coach books, so we will begin working out of those two times a week. They cover math and reading/language arts skills. In math, we will be working on algebra skills, such as solving for the unknown variable. In social studies, we will continue our work on the Civil Rights unit. We will be doing segregation day Thursday. Make sure to ask your girls about it. It is always such a fun experience for them.
Last week Leitisha and Debora celebrated birthdays on the same day. Happy birthday girls!!!
