Book Reports!
Nothing facilitates learning better than reading! In order to enrich our students with an understanding of the time periods they will be reading about, students have been given reading lists and a book report sheet to guide them through a realistic fiction book. Insha Allah, this will give our students the background information they need to help them succeed in their Social Studies classes. Please see the form below:

Spelling Bee Rules
I know how excited students, parents, and staff are about the upcoming Spelling Bee! While we're having fun, make sure to remember the rules:
FOURTH GRADE ILLINOIS PROJECT: DUE DATE EXTENDED
Due to a delay with the snow day, ILLINOIS PROJECTS are now due March 9, 2012.
Test-taking Tips: Notecard
All grades will be allowed to use one 3"x5" index card for Social Studies tests. They may write on both sides and fill it with as much information as they want, but I would like to request that children be allowed to fill their cards with main ideas and important details that they determine themselves. However, if parents would like to check the cards afterwards, that would be great.
Jazakumullah khayran!

MAP Testing for Spring Semester
We will be having MAP testing next week. All middle school students (4th, 5th, and 6th grades) will be tested Monday-Wednesday. As always, please make sure that students come to school well-rested and begin the day with a good, healthy breakfast.
FREE Online Textbooks!
Students can now access an online version of their Social Studies textbooks. Students will be creating accounts in Computers, and they can use their accounts to access these books anytime, anywhere they have an Internet connection!
You can access it in one of two ways:
1) Go to www.pearsonsuccessnet.com
2) Use the link under the "Resources" page
