Science Test Unit C

Dear parents,

I hope all is well Inshallah. Please study very hard with your child on Unit C. Try to study the examples for each group of vertebrates, invertebrates, and also plants of the plant kingdom. It is important that you dedicate tonight to testing, reviewing and revising all the notes and material with your child.
I am working very hard with them in the class. Before each lesson EVERDAY of this month, I quizzed them orally before starting a new lesson. I found that despite all the effort in class, and homework, 80% of the class does not study their notes daily. It is imperative that they review the notes DAILY as this lightens the load of the day before an exam (hence, Today). I gave (reminded) pop quizzes Friday and Today after orally quizzing them and analyzing that their daily study habits have not been up to par. Unfortunately the class average was a 65% including Quiz #1 and Quiz #2.
So again, please review as much as you can tonight and inshallah all will be ok.
May Allah make these remaining months easier and more productive.

Thank you
Sincerely,
Sister Mardhia

Notices for Parents

Dear parents,

Thank you for sending antibacterial sanitizers with your child. During transition periods, before recess, and lunch, I remind the class to use their sanitizers. Inshallah with these new tips in place, we can stay healthier.

We are in month 6 of the school year. For your child to be prepared in May's SAT standardized exams, we need to cover 12 chapters in Math, 6 chapters in Science, and 2 topics in Social Studies which includes 12 sections, and Reading Comprehension and Writing Essays.
We are up to par with Social Studies and Reading/Writing. We have 3 1/2 months remaining to conclude grade 4. In Math, we are on Chapter 5, and in Science, we are on Chapter 2. The only way to complete our curriculum is to double up every day, on lessons and homework. You will notice that the homework has increased. Please try to be understanding as I am trying my best to cover as much as I can while maintaining the consistent level of attrition. I would appreciate that you explain this situation to your child as kindly as possible.

Also, if you have any suggestions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to call me at Al-Huda Islamic school or drop by during dismissal, and we can clarify any thoughts.

Thank you again,
Sincerely,
Sister Mardhia
