Week 34 Update

5^th Grade Weekly Update

Dear Parents,

This has been yet another busy week in the Grade 5 class.

The week was spent familiarizing the students with the testing format for the upcoming IOWA tests. As you are aware, these will be taken each day all of next week. Please do ensure that your child eats well and gets enough rest.

The three most important things for the students to remember are:

1. Read the questions carefully and ask yourself what you need to do;
2. Do your absolute best;
3. Do not leave any answers/bubbles blank. If you don’t know, take your best guess, as long as you fill in a bubble for each question.
