Semester Tests!


Our "Prizes"

This week we took our Reading, Language, and Math Semester Tests! Ms. Strum does everything that she can to motivate her students. Ms. Strum wants each and every student to do their VERY BEST! Ms. Strum bought "prizes" for doing their best on the test. Ms. Strum put our names in a basket if we were working hard and doing our best on the test! At the end of the day, we drew names out of the basket to see who got a "reward".
