STAR testing

3 days of testing are almost finished. Find out all you need to know from the California Department of Education website. We didn’t start very well on Monday with the English Practice Test. Luckily, with some help from sucking Jolly Ranchers and chewing gum, we performed much better on the math. So far, Tuesday and Wednesday have gone well. The students are showing their work and trying their best. I bet we have several Proficient and Advanced students this year! (Yes, it’s true that chewing gum helps!)

On Wednesday, we acted like CSI detectives and found out what type of fingerprints we have. We discovered that there are no two fingerprints alike, not even on the same person. In fact, some people can have all 3 different types of fingerprints, loops, whorls, and arches. Which type do you think is MOST common?

There is no telling what we might do next!

Palmer Way Olympics – coming soon – June 5th for grades K-3.
