Is it really the last week of school? Wow! The kids have learned so much. They have come so far.

Please don't let your kids be affected by the summer "slide." Encourage them to read as much as they can. I like to have my own children work in the Summer Bridge workbooks. These keep their minds active and ready for the next grade. (You can order these books on Amazon.com)

Homework this week:

Language Arts - none
Math (see left side bar) - The test for chapter 14 will be on Wednesday. Go to www.adaptedmind.com to study geometry.

Multiplication Party - The kids are going to be rewarded for knowing their times tables. Almost all of the kids have them passed off.

Sage Testing - The students did so well persevering and performing well on the tests. The results will come in the fall. Thanks for hanging in there.

**Please turn in all take home books and library books from home
