Winners and an Award!

Well scores came in yesterday. I was very pleased with Math. Very pleased! Reading, well.  Let's just say not so much.  Some of my little ones did not quite apply themselves.  In their defense though, it is a HARD Test.  It really is. I think I would get awfully bored reading 8 boring reading selections.

I had lots of comments about getting our scores back so soon.

On one hand, it's nice to know right away.

On the other hand,  since we get scores back right away we have to remediate for a week and then retest.  Because, if you didn't know if they didn't know it a week ago, they will certainly know it by the retest.

So next week will be all about remediating my little ones who didn't pass.  My little kiddos that did pass will get to do some sort of a version of literature circles while I'm reviewing with the other ones.  I'm working on a plan now. Hopefully I'll get it hammered out before Monday!

Ok, now to more exciting things! The winner to my Giveaway! I decided to not just have 1 winner, not 2 winners, but 3 Winners!!

So the winners are...
