This week we have two exams scheduled. I don’t typically set up a week like this, but the way the units are ending brought me to this decision. We have been talking about how to best manage time so that they can get studying done for both. Some important things to note are test taking strategies and asking for help when you don’t understand something. Please take some time to reinforce these ideas with your child at home. Good habits can help them when they have tests in multiple subjects, which they will have in middle school!
By the way, it’s MAY! Isn’t that a crazy thought!
