My children, we should love people, not only with words and talk but by our actions and true caring. 1 John 3.18
Iowa Basic Tests are over -- to everyones relief. We will continue with ISP presentations in the afternoon and be finished by Thursday. The project is over and I think the students have done a really great job. The presentations, tech problems notwithstanding -- have been just wonderful. Thank you to so many of you who have come to listen to your childs work. I have had to move the due date of the Declaration of Independence to Monday, April 23 -- please be sure your child has learned this. We will be working on our crystal formations in science this week and will have a short test on Thursday over the atoms and molecules unit.
