Terra Nova Testing - September 14 - 18

During the week of September 14th, Terra Nova testing will be administered to students in Grades 2 through 8. Taking tests can be hard work – requiring lots of energy. We recommend that students get plenty of rest and eat a nourishing breakfast and lunch on test days. Please be sure to have your children arrive at school on time. In addition, we would ask you to schedule routine doctor/dentist appointments away from next week. Please note: homework assignments will be minimal during test week. Most importantly, don`t forget to ask your child(ren) about the testing each day. Thank you!

The Life Skill of The Week is...

Cooperation: to work together toward a common goal. Things go more smoothly when we work together for the common good!


Here are a few tips:

· Listen carefully to others so you can understand what they are saying.

· Share or take turns when more than one person wants the same thing.

· Compromise when you have a serious conflict.

· Do your part of a shared task and do the very best that you can.

· Show appreciation to people for what they contribute to a group or team.

· Encourage others to do their best.
