Test Week

Dear Parents,

This week the Egyptians reviewed and took their vocabulary and reading tests. We found some interactive and fun ways for the students to review. We played vocabulary review basketball outside on nice days. They really enjoyed doing Mad Libs, short stories with some words left out that the students have to fill in with words from their vocabulary book. The tests will be graded very soon and progress reports will be sent home next week.

The Egyptians learned about rain forests in science class. Rain forests are habitats that get rain almost every day and many plants and animals live there.

After lots of reviewing and testing, I am giving the students a break from their student journals for this weekend. We will start back with those next weekend.

Christmas is coming up soon so we will do some fun Christmas reading activities next week! Have a great weekend!

All the best,

Teacher Andy
