Doing the same in MN! I love the SmartiePants notes. My class has visits from Captain BrainPower! They love it and takes the edge off all the testing hype. Good luck to you and your students!
sooo ... I pinned your cute test goodies last week and they are a HIT on pinterest! Good Grief! My email is filling up with repins :) Also quick question, during your word work time, do you make sure the students do a different activity each time? How do you assess them each week?
