Mrs. Givens' 4th Grade
A Digital Newsletter to Keep you in the Loop
The 4th Quarter Charge!
During the next couple of weeks we will be doing some math review and test strategies during our regular math time so there will NOT be any math homework this week and most likely next. Your child is speaking the truth!
We do not have a definite MAP test schedule as of today but I know it will start sometime in April and take about 2 weeks to complete. On those days it is very important that your child comes to school on time and well rested. Keep an eye out for more information as it becomes available!
March 21-25 and upcoming events
MAP Testing is Around the Corner
Missouri MAP testing is just around the corner. The window opens for the entire state on April 4th and I will keep you posted as to when YOUR child will be testing. It will take us about 2 weeks to complete the process.
Things to remember:
- Get a good nights sleep
- Come to school on time
- Eat a good breakfast (hey, we happen to serve one here each morning)
