Hello to all on this rainy Tuesday! I hope I am finding you well, wonderful, and dry!
We began our day by completing Reading, part 1 and Math part 1 of our Terra Nova testing. The students worked well and the time went by fast...before we knew it, it was over and time to head to resource classes.
BOOK MADNESS:

We are trying to determine our SMA 5th grade's 2015 Book of the Year! What will it be?!!? I hope everyone has already begun immersing themselves in one of these books that they may not have read yet!
