No Homework Tues 9/20
Today we were not able to complete our 5-3 work, so I did not send home the math homework. Look for it tomorrow. We are taking the district Math and district language arts tests through Friday. Please be sure to have them eat breakfast and get plenty of sleep so they can do their best. These tests help me to know what we need to reteach to students. The next 2 weeks will be our Fall Break. I will not be sending home much , if any, homework. If you would like work for your child, please email me and I can put something together.

All but 6 students will be taking the CELDT ( California English Language Development Test) Monday and Wednesday.
