There will be no homework assignments on MCAS nights that need to be handed in. Please help your student to get a good night sleep, eat a good breakfast, and come to school on time. You may want to consider packing an extra snack. Students will have opportunities to eat snack before and after testing. Students should also begin to think about their inventions. Directions are below.

Monday, April 3, 201

• Get a good night sleep.
• Eat a good breakfast tomorrow morning.
• Come to school on time.
• You may want to bring a second snack for tomorrow.
• Invention Homework: Talk to your family and friends to brainstorm ideas for new inventions. You could ask them the following questions: 1. What problems need to be solved with new technology? 2. What would make life easier or more fun? Dream up as many solutions as you can and list them. After each idea, write a sentence about how the invention would make life easier or more fun. We will share ideas later this week.

MCAS is Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday this week.
