Johnson's Journal April 1, 2014

When the students walked into my room this morning and saw the note about a math test and a science test on Friday (April 4th), they thought it was an April Fool's Day joke.  It was not.  As I looked ahead, I saw we were just about to wrap up both our science chapter and our math chapter.  Knowing that we would be administering Iowa Assessments (Basic Skills Tests) next week (April 7-11), I wanted to get those chapters wrapped up before we started testing.  Therefore, I will be reviewing for the science test with the students on Wednesday, and on Thursday, we will review for the math test.  By doing this, your child can spend a bit of time reviewing both nights.  On the bright side of things, there will be no homework over the weekend!  Please make sure your child does come rested and ready to do their best on the Iowa Assessments!
