Fossil Ridge - Mrs. Munro

March and April Expectations:

Students and Parents,

Hang in there! In March we started our last major writing piece following the writing process-----an expository essay based on the novel Deathwatch. Students have three weeks to complete it; the essay is due on Monday, April 12th. Parents, please encourage your student to submit his/her essay on time since it is worth 100 points.

After the writing piece, we will be reviewing key points in preparation for the state end-of-level testing. Parents, please encourage your student to eat well, get plenty of sleep, and reduce stress through physical activity during the upcoming testing weeks. The language arts state test is Tuesday, April 27th through Thursday, April 29th (yes, three testing days followed by one make up opportunity on Friday, April 30th). Science and math testing will follow.

Thank you for your efforts,
Mrs. Munro (Cougar Fan)
