Spelling/Language Tests

Due to the snow days the schedule has been rearranged somewhat.  To ensure time to complete the end of term project students will not be tested over spelling and DLR before Christmas.
Students will be starting new DLR (Daily Language Review) and spelling on12-8-06.  The next test will be on Friday, 12-19-06.  Study guides are sent home the day before any test.  Students are alway encouraged to spend time reviewing this material.
