New York State Science Performance Test this week! There are three stations being tested; ball and ramp, mass, and magnetism/electricity. Please review your science notes and the handout from the practice test.
New York State Tests begin after the Spring Recess. There are three weeks until our next break. ELA test begins the day we return from the break.
Here we are at another break! As we are approaching the state assessments, there is homework over the break.
Students should have already begun their project. They have been given two weeks to complete it. Have them print it out and bring it in with the portrait they created. Reminder, use black papermate flair to trace portrait, then color. We will mount them in class when we return.
Math work is required over the break in the NYS Workout Skills Review & Practice book.
Please ask your child for his/her recent Math and Social Studies tests to be signed.
