Week 20

We are moving towards the start of test prep classes on Feb 9th. Thank you for your swift response! While the test prep program will help give tips on how to take the NYS tests, the best preparation is to have good reading and writing skills, which we work on daily.  Please encourage your child to keep up their independent reading books. At this point, your child should aim to read for 45 minutes every night.
If you haven't yet, please check out our new Kid Video featuring Chanique and Flavia!

Here's what is happening next week:

  • We will have the Unit 5 math test on Thursday. Students will receive a study sheet on Tuesday to help guide their review. Since most of the test will focus on multiplication, it would be a good idea to practice multiplication facts and their extensions (i.e. 7 x 8= _____ so  70 X 80 = _____).
Have a warm weekend!
