HSA Next Week for Grade 3

The third grade classes will be doing our HSA test next week Tuesday to Friday. We will be doing the reading test on Tuesday and Wednesday and the math test on Thursday and Friday.

Here are some tips to help prepare your child for the test:

1. Go to bed at a reasonable time. so you are well rested the next day.
2. Eat a good, healthy breakfast.
3. Bring a snack that you can eat at recess. (Our test starts at 10:00am everyday).
4. Bring a jacket or sweater if you get cold. The test will be in the library.
5. Bring an AR book to read after you are done testing.

Good luck! This will be your first HSA test. Do your best! if you don't pass, you will have another chance in April.

Simple Machine Projects

Everyone did a great job with their Simple Machine projects. We had a nice variety of pulleys, wheel and axels, screws, inclined planes, and wedges. Some projects even had a combination of simple machines! Super job, B23 students!
