On Tuesday, April 29th we have the Math STAAR Test.
It is important that students arrive on time and their Chromebook is fully charged. Thanks for your support to help ensure test day to runs as smooth as possible!
All students need to have a personal set of headphones or ear buds. They are used in class daily, and will be needed for each student for the Math STAAR test next on April 29th. The Math Test can be read to all 3rd grade students, if they have head phones.
Please check to make sure your child has a working pair, as a lot have broken or gotten lost.
One snack will be provided by the school during STAAR Testing, but most kids could use an extra snack (that is not messy) and a water bottle sent from home to help sustain focus throughout the testing.
We cannot believe the end of 3rd grade is near! It has been an amazing year getting to know each student.
In May, we will be starting our end-of-the-year countdown. Activities will include making tie-dye shirts, a field trip to Parr Park, board games, Career Day, Gator Games, a Reading Campout, snacks and movie day, all wrapped up with popsicles on the last day!
If you would like to contribute, we have added items to our Amazon wish list posted below.
Thank you for your continued support!
