Update -- No Homework -- 4/12/11

As this is AIMS week, there will be no homework for this entire week.  AIMS is a test that covers an entire year's worth of learning objectives, so last minute studying probably won't help much, if at all.  Better strategies for doing well on the test are:

• Get plenty of good rest the night before (go to bed a little early, if possible)
• Get a good breakfast
• Practice ways to relax (for those who get nervous about tests)

These are strategies that can help a student to recall all the things that they already know.

In addition to doing the AIMS test, we will also be working on several projects -- one involving a production that parents will certainly be invited to attend!  In many ways, this is one of the most enjoyable weeks of the school year, in my opinion.

If you have questions or concerns about AIMS or this week, please do not hesitate to email me at dshrader@hesglendale.org .

Thanks!
