Last Week March 24-28
Reading: We began preparing for the Terra Nova by talking about some good test taking strategies including get lots of sleep, eat a good breakfast, practice active listening, be quiet in the hallways, choose the best answer.
Math - We finished Chapter 7 by taking a Unit Test. The students all did well with questions on telling time, counting money, reading a graph and place value. We finished the week by learning about symmetry and double digit addition.
Bible: To prepare for the Terra Nova, we put our Old Testament studies on hold to walk through the New Testament. It has been a great week as we learned about the amazing life of Jesus while he was on earth. We learned about his miracles from healing sick people to feeding 5000 people with just a fish and some bread.
This Week March 31- April 3.
No spelling test or Bible Memory test.
No school on Friday April 4th。START OF SPRING BREAK UNTIL APRIL 14
Terra Nova Test: On Tuesday to Thursday, the whole school (minus K4 students) will be taking a standardised test called the Terra Nova. This will cover subjects such as Reading, Math, Bible, Social Studies, Science, Vocabulary, and Word Analysis. Because of the test, and to help with the brain, the students are allowed to bring a snack ONLY on these days. Please send a small snack with your child to school on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. It should be a healthy snack, no sugar, for example, fruit, bread, cheese stick, crackers, vegetables, senbei, etc. They should be able to finish it in 5 minutes.
今週テストがありますので生徒たちはおやつを学校を持っていってもいいです。火曜日、水曜日、木曜日、５分以内に食べられるヘルシーなおやつ：せんべい、果物、クラッカーなようなもの。
Kid City: On Thursday starting at 12:00pm, the 1st and 2nd graders will gather in the gym for the 1st EVER Kid City event!

They will be practicing oral language at the 10 stations we have: post office, bank, city hall, store, bakery, hospital, pharmacy, church, police station, and school. We are looking for a few more parents that would like to help out. Please email me if you would like to help!
