Verb - To Be Circumference

ITBS Test taking tips: (from  Maya)
http://taft.cr.k12.ia.us/itbs_test_taking_tips.htm

Banned from your writing: TO BE as the main verb in the sentence. You'll be amazed how much your vocabulary improves by eradicating this one verb in its six voices

This is OFFICIALLY a no H/W week. If you choose to work at home on any of the projects (fantasy story/book club, updating your blog etc), feel free to do so.

This is a great video song on circles to help you learn the facts about circles



Add any test taking tips you received from your parents for others to read.

Rest tonight - Use the next 3 days to show what an excellent student you have grown into in 5th grade.

    Does anyone know which specific math tests we are doing for the ITBS tomorrow? I know one is Math Computation (5 minutes - It's the shortest every year), but I REALLY want to know the other...
