Students have all chosen five learning goals to focus on for their spiral review. They will have time in class each day during their rotations to complete the practice. Part of their review includes review videos. If your student does not yet have their own pair of headphones to use at school, it would be a great idea to get them a pair to keep in their backpacks. Students are expected to complete one My 5 per week.  The second My 5 is due this Friday.
