Tuesday

     Hello!!! Just wanted to keep you updated. We have benchmark testing starting tomorrow. Also, we have a vocabulary test and an energy test on Friday. The kids do have their study guides for energy.      

     As far as homework, the kids have to read for 30 mins. in their AR books. They have a new sign it sheet. The kids also have 1/2 sheet to have signed if they watch the election returns tonight.

     At NES, we voted and Barack Obama won. We also had debates in Social Studies and he won there too! Ask your child about it!        I wonder if the American voters will agree?

Busy Week ahead!!
