Happy New Year and Welcome Back!!
Hope you all had a restful break and spent time with family. My family and I spent most of our break in Cape Coral, Florida in the sunshine visiting family!
NWEA testing will begin this week! Make sure your child is resting and getting a good breakfast before school.
Here is what is happening this week:

- We will be focusing on comprehension to be ready for NWEA.
- Writing we will be making New Year’s resolutions and writing informational text.
Math

- We will also review coordinate planes in preparation for NWEA.
Science
