Week of April 16th
What's Happening in Mrs. Lee's Homeroom
The students have worked very hard the last three days on the ELA sections of the GMAS. We will have a normal day on Monday before completing the two math sections on Tuesday and Wednesday and Science on Friday. Our lunch time on testing days is at 11:42. It is very important that your child not only be on time, but not hurrying in at the last moment. Students work best when they have had time to come in class and get settled before starting. We will start testing promptly at 9:00 each day. Any student who is not in class, will not be able to join the class until we are finished for the day. They will be scheduled for a make-up time that afternoon.
All classes who earn perfect attendance throughout testing will be entered in a drawing for a class pizza party! We have had 3 days of perfect attendance!!
If you haven't returned the permission slip for the Stone Mountain trip, please do so. The permission form does need to be returned even if you pay on mypaymentsplus. We do have our two chaperones for our class. However, we are not limited to just two overall. Any other parents who would like to go with us can pay their admission and follow the bus. If you are interested in going, please let me know so I can give you the details when they are available.
We now have resources on the Parsons eClass page for the Georgia Milestones. I have included a link below to the resources. I will be reviewing these resources with the class in the coming days. There are links included on the site that have practice questions and activities for reviewing GMAS.
