Terra Nova Testing

Today your child brought home 2 practice test booklets. These were given to familiarize them with sample questions and test taking strategies. These booklets do not need to be returned.

We will be testing in the mornings. It would help if your child gets a good nights rest and a good breakfast before school.

We will continue on with our normal curriculum in the afternoon. Homework will be light next week.

Have a good weekend!

Please review, sign and return Science test. #22 was a free pt. Also, please return the Religion test. I am still missing several.

Today we did our practice test for the In View test which will be on Monday. Most felt it was pretty easy. Tomorrow will be the practice test for the Terra Nova. I will send the practice tests home tomorrow so you can look them over and discuss them with your child. Some parents have gone on line and typed in Terra Nova and gotten some practice items. There is no real way to study for the Terra Nova. The test is based on prior knowledge. If you would like to do this, feel free. Please don't make your child nervous about taking the tests. I have assured them that they will not be counted as a grade.
