I’d like to say thank you for visiting yesterday. I enjoyed meeting all of you and your extended family members.

This week we took our fall math and reading NWEA tests. Everyone did not finish them so we have a few students who will continue it next week. Next week I will continue to DRA students so that I know their reading level. Book bags will start to go home next Thursday and Friday and throughout the following week.  This year our reading coach has formatted a reading log that the students fill out indicating how many minutes they read and the title of the book they read. I will do a practice one with them and they may need help at home, showing them what to write where.  Don’t let them try to tell you it’s your job to fill it out. They have to do it.

Next Friday I will be sending home a behavior log where they will be recording their behavior.This is also where we can communicate. I am asking that you initial or sign it so I know you checked their behavior or have read a note I may have jotted down. Students will get a daily sticker if they turn in homework for that day and have the log signed by you. If all 5 days have a sticker on it they get a little treat on Friday. I will be telling them that they can’t say “my mom forgot to sign it” as I do let them know it’s their responsibility to have you do it.

Here is their specials schedule:

Monday-enrichment and music

Wednesday-art

Thursday-media
