We continue our study of bones and muscles.  Today your child will be bringing home a study guide for the test which is scheduled for next Friday the 8th.   Your child has two weeks to learn the information on the guide.   Please have them work on it a little each night.  

Next week, we will be taking ISAT tests in reading and math.  We have been going over the format of the test and have been doing test taking strategies.  Below you will find a interactive site that has actual practice tests for math and reading:
