Well, we have finally reached testing week.  Don't forget a good night's rest and healthy breakfast are key for doing superior work!  A Spelling test will be the only test given this week.  However, we will do our best to work in other subjects as our afternoons permit.  We do have the dissection of owl pellets to look forward to on Wednesday.  Have a splendidly marvelous day!
