Thank you to each of you for your focus and efforts on the CTP IV tests. I am thrilled by how many of you noticed vocabulary words in the reading and writing sections! We will tackle the last three units of vocabulary after Spring Break. This week, we begin the adjectives unit in Easy Grammar, continue our unit on short stories, and take the trip to Biz Town.
