Enjoy the long weekend!!!
I did mention to the class that I wanted to give a study guide for our first Science test, coming up on Sept. 6th. I was hoping to have it out to the class by the end of the day, but unfortunately, I was not able to. I posted some of it here, it here in case anyone wants to get a jump on it! 😉 Don't forget, you can access your science text book from anywhere, using the link on the 5th grade website, or on my blog (posted earlier this month).
Have a wonderful weekend!!!
