Starting tomorrow and continuing on Wednesday, our class will be taking a state-mandated standardized pre-test. This test will be used to examine the gains that your child will make over his/her first grade year. We will be testing in the morning so make sure that your child is at school on time with a yummy breakfast in his/her tummy! :) Because of testing (and our field trip on Friday) we will not be having reading groups for the rest of the week. Your child will not have a book to read for homework this week.
We are going on our field trip to Lee University for the play on bullying this Friday. If you have not turned in a permission form, I MUST have it by Thursday.
Animal projects are due next Tuesday. Be working on this project with your child. It's meant to be a family/child project.
