Iowa Assessments are complete! Some of the kids really enjoy this week, while others dread it.  We haven't had much time for regular class this week, so homework has been nearly nonexistent.  Next week we'll be taking MAP tests on Tuesday and Thursday, but will be able to have normal classes on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday!  We'll be getting new words next week for spelling and vocabulary.  We only have three stories left in our reading book, and then we'll spend the last few weeks working on a novel unit.  The kids usually really enjoy that last book of the year because it is different from our normal routine!
