Week of January 30th-February 3rd 

Great job to all of the students who presented their Science Fair Projects and attended Science Night at school! We will be finishing up presentations this week. 
Report cards will printed and sent home some time this week.

The Unit 5 Math Test will be coming home today. Any student who received a 3 or 4 have the option of taking a retest. We went over the test today. Their homework tonight was to study. If they choose to they may retake the test tomorrow. 
We will be taking our final NWEA test in Science this Tuesday . Once the website has calculated the scores, I will send home a print out of all test scores so families can see where your child showed growth and where improvement is still needed. I encourage students to go onto the dearbornschools.org website and click on NWEA RIT Practice to do activities at home to help improve their RIT scores.

Another great website to improve their NWEA RIT scores is Khan Academy. We started using this website last Friday. It is also a great resource when extra math help is needed.

NWEA testing!!

Yes, it is that time of year again. This month we are giving the NWEA tests. Today begins our first day of testing. We will be taking one test each week. It is important to make every effort to have your child at school and on time during testing.  Having your child go on Moby Max every night is a great way to practice!! Here is our testing schedule:

Thurs. Jan. 19th am~ Math
Thursday. Jan 26th Reading 

Tuesday , Jan.31sr Science

Please make sure that your child is well rested and eats a good breakfast. Little things like going to bed early and having a healthy breakfast can make a difference in how a child feels and how a child feels plays a big part in test taking.

As soon as all of the tests have been completed I will send home your child’s test results.
