The IOWA Testing is Over!

Yes! It seems like fifth grade is the year when we have to do tons of tons and testing. Luckily, one of the biggies is now out of the way. This week the students finished the IOWA test.
There are some fun things coming up soon:

Tomorrow is our first homework reward activity. Everyone who has turned in all their math and reading homework since the beginning of school will get to go to the activity. People who are missing assignments will work on their missing assignments. Help your fifth grader be ready!

Next week, on Wednesday and Thursday (the 7th and 8th) we'll be having SEP conferences. Your student has your appointment time, so be sure to get it from them. I can switch your time if you need to, but please call or email me.

Also, and nobody knows this yet, our first Rotar store is taking place on Friday, October 16th! The students have been saving their Rotarbucks for weeks and will finally get a chance to spend them!

Miss Rotar (and her evil twin sister) is celebrating her 29th birthday on October 23rd. This might not be exciting to you, but I sure can't wait. There might even be some sort of birthday treat for students involved. . .

That's all for now! Hope you're all having a great week.
