Moving on from MISIC...

Well, it seems that 5th grade has done their fair share of learning this year! In each subject area, 5th graders have improved scores from 1 and 2 points up to 24 points in certain areas! That's amazing! We're so proud of everyone. Yes, I know some students stayed the same in some areas or even saw a drop in an area. Remember, MISIC is one test and it shows how you performed on one day. It does not define you as a person. All we ever ask any student...is to do his or her best. Remember, it's a lot about how much effort is put into it. We saw a lot of effort this week!

We have a few students that need to make up some missed MISIC tests from last week. We are planning on having any 5th grader make these up starting on Monday (tomorrow). So, if you are someone who missed any test, prepare for some MISIC time tomorrow.

I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend in the sun! I know I did. It looks like we'll be having more fabulous weather to use up some of our recess/MISIC minutes this week at some point, too! Remind your families we have a 3-hour early out on Wednesday of this week. AND.. this is something most students will be happy to hear - Puberty class was supposed start tomorrow for some of you, but because of the MISIC schedule and early outs, it will begin NEXT Monday, April 19! A note will be coming home this week to your families! I'm sure you guys just can't WAIT!!!

I'll know you checked the blog tonight if you can figure out the code within this post. It is a sentence that lets you know something about our schedule tomorrow. The sentence has 7 words in it. Each word has its own color. Good luck! Jot down the sentence on a piece of paper and tape it to the CHALKBOARD in the morning!

Later Gators!!
