Testing

As you know testing is next week. It is important for you to get plenty of rest, and eat a healthy big breakfast every morning. Remember the three big mistakes on these types of tests, 1. not being on the correct answers space, 2. not reading all the answers before you mark your answer, and 3. not taking your time. Make sure you are early to school. We will be have our testing in the mornings, mostly.
Below under sites to study are some sites that can help you prepare for what may be on the test. Most all the sites are fun, and some are just videos for you to watch. This is why I didn't give you homework today, so please take this time to really go over the sites. I want you to also go over the sites you missed, or just go through them again this weekend. Preparation, and practice makes perfect.

Narnia


Dear Parents,

We will begin Narnia, The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S Lewis, on Feb. 8. You can purchase this book at Empire. I have many copies on reserve, but you do need to ask specifically for it.

Spelling

This week for spelling words we will do unit 4 week 4. We start Narnia next week, but we will continue to follow, in succession, the spelling workbook.
