The B Hive 5.26

Hello all!  Happy almost Memorial Day weekend!  I hope that everyone plans to take some time to rest, relax, and recharge.  I know that our students need that.  We are ALMOST finished up with testing.  Everyone has completed the MSTEP and I am currently working on finishing up the NWEA with students.  Next Tuesday we will take the Scholastic Reading Inventory and then do any makeups needed.  It is my hope that next week will feel "normal."  They have done an INCREDIBLE job with the testing and have made huge gains across the board.  I will be sending out emails to highlight your student's accomplishment next week.  

A few things to note:
Today was our last spelling test for the year.  Students will not have words to work on for the next few weeks.  

Homework will continue for two more weeks.  There is a definite decrease in homework as of late.  Please help them finish off the year strong.

Monday, May 29th - No School, Memorial Day
