NASA -Ames Exploration Encounter!
We had a fabulous field trip today! We went to the NASA-Ames Exploration Encounter in Mountain View. We participated in several activities. Be sure to ask your child about his/her favorite one. I loved the Air Traffic Simulation (www.nasa.gov/sector33) and the Momentum Machine. The students also participated as Space Station crew members, each with an assignment or experiment to perform. They were supported by the Mission Control team who were monitoring their flight. We felt like we were light years away!

Benchmark Test for Math
Our Benchmark Test for Topics 9-12, 15 & 17 will be next Wednesday, April 25th. This test covers quite a lot of material. A good way to prepare for this test would be to use the Math Homework Workbook. There are both Reteach and Practice pages for each lesson. Our students have done a great job learning all of this math knowledge and this test is just one measure to see how well they are retaining these concepts. I will be reviewing with them on Friday, Monday and Tuesday. This review will also be helpful to build their confidence for the STAR test they will take on May 3rd and 4th. They have been such an enthusiastic math class. Please ...
