CAASPP - If you haven't had a chance to look at the CAASPP Practice and Training Site, I suggest that you sit down with your child at some point over the break. From this link, click on:
- Student Interface Practice and Training Tests (the green box on right)
- Leave the setting as "Guest" - not student
- Choose grade level (3)
- Choose one of the PINK Smarter Balanced Practice Tests or Performance Tasks (you have access to the purple and turquoise buttons, but the PINK sections are the best practice for us)
- Click through the next screens - default settings are fine
Vacation to Mars - Students now have their own copy of the script for our play, and a copy of the music CD. If your child would like a digital file, please send a USB flash drive to school, and I'll copy the file for them. Please send a blank flash drive --- I don't want to mistakenly erase something off yours.
Over the break, I'm hoping that students will enjoy listening to the songs, singing along, learning the words. We don't have parts yet --- that will come a couple of weeks after we return.
Please note: The script (in its red folder) should be at school any day your child is. The CD should stay at home --- please don't bring it back to school.
