We started the day with the STAR test. Fourth and seventh graders in the state of California have the honor of taking an extra part of the STAR test... a writing test.
It was also Dr. Seuss Day... and 'Read Across America.' In the afternoon, we had some high schoolers (and former Room 8ers!) come in and read some Dr. Seuss books. That was certainly fun!
In these first two photos, Caryn and Michael read to us. Caryn will be part of Room 8 again next year when she takes "Elementary Aide" at the high school. She'll drive over and work in Room 8 for part of the day! HOORAY! Her sister, Chanel, worked in Room 8 a couple of years ago - and they both lived in Room 8 when they were in 4th grade!
In this photo above, I'm not sure the name of the girl in the green shirt - but on the right, is Erica! Erica looks JUST like she did when she lived in Room 8 as a 4th grader - only she does look a little older!
It was also TWIN DAY at the high school. Amy and Kate (both former Room 8ers) didn't read to us, but they did drop in to say Hi!We loved having the high schoolers come in and visit!
