Reading -

We are doing lots of reviewing of the skills we learned this year in
 preparation for the
STAAR testing coming up.  Remind you child just to do their best.
 They have learned all they
need to know over the course of the year.

Writing-
We have finished our Create Your Own stories and will now start working on comic
 strips for fun.  Your child will get to create their own comic and then analyze their
 own writing.

Social Studies
We will be wrapping up Texas History with the end of WWII.  After the STAAR test
next week they will be starting the Texas Play.  This is a great review for the year
 that is an overview of all the most important aspects of Texas history.

Homework
Nightly reading for comprehension and DreamBox for math are two great practices to
continue even through the summer in order to avoid summer slide.

Thank you to everyone who came to after school math tutoring.  They had 70 students in 3 rotating math groups. Your child's hard work will have them very well prepared to do well on the end of the year exams.
