Will March come in like a lion and go out like a lamb? The lion part is certainly true! Spring will be here before we know it...
PARCC testing will begin this week. We’ve already taken a practice test in the lab. If you’d like to check the practice tests out at home, I’ve attached some links: http://nextgen.apps.sparcc.org/la/3-5 (Language Arts)
Please make sure your child wears his/her glasses to school, especially during the PARCC tests. Also, a good night’s sleep and a healthy meal plan is essential to success.

Spelling: Lesson 20. Cursive due Tuesday, All other homework due Thursday. Test Friday, “challenge words” students excused from test. Please make sure your child is using notebook paper for homework!
