Midterm testing 1/16 & 1/23

Midterm testing is January 16 and 23. The reading and comprehension test is this Saturday. Grammer and writing/spelling is on the 23rd. Please check with your kiddos and try to help them as much as you can. Their teachers has given them guidelines and materials to practice with. Also, please try to be on time because teachers will be doing a pre-test review at the beginning of the class. Convincing our children to do things they don't want to can be challenging. However, it is important to remember that pressuring them into doing the things that will make them successful, almost always makes them more difficult to work with. From our perspective, it makes no sense that our kids would say their Arabi work is hard. The truth is most kids are motivated and not at all lazy. We just have to keep praising and encouraging them no matter what! We trust our teachers and dedicated volunteers to make the midterm testing a pleasant experience for your kids.
