Please send snacks next week for 25 hungry 5th graders! They will need the brain fuel to succeed in ISTEP! (Individually wrapped items are best, but not required).
Also, the kids are allowed to chew sugar free gum and/or mints during testing, and any time in the classroom (next week only). They must get rid of the gum or mints when we leave the classroom or testing lab. ***I would recommend minty gum or mints, as research shows peppermint stimulates the brain!!!
Please provide your 5th grader with an amazing breakfast each day next week, too, and please be sure he or she gets plenty of sleep Sunday through Thursday nights next week!
