I hope everyone had a chance to enjoy the nicer weather this weekend. Hopefully, it sticks around for a while. This week on Wednesday is Literacy Night. Hopefully, everyone can come up and help celebrate March is Reading Month with everyone else. Today marks the beginning of the 4th card marking. I can’t believe we are 3/4 completed with the year already. My wish for every student is to continue reading 35 minutes each night and stay focuses on learning their multiplication facts. These two things will ensure that we are able to finish the year easily and the M-STEP/NWEA without much trouble. In order to have your students as ready as possible, I highly recommend each student spend some time on Khan Academy, Mobymax and/or ReadTheory.org to stay up on their math and reading.
