If any parents are interested in helping make Spelling Homework Notebooks, organizing sight words, and labeling new books tomorrow afternoon (after 1/2 dismissal 11:45), Please let me know. Also, if it is easier to take home and return the “project” on Tuesday that is fine too. Send me a message on Remind if you can help out. Thanks in advance!! 🙂 🙂 🙂

1. Oakman Folder- sign and return behavior calendar for JANUARY!! *****SEE CHART FOR NWEA SCORES FROM TODAY!!!*** The number in yellow is their score from today. A full report will be sent home after the district is finished with all testing (beginning of Febrarary). The end of the year expectation for kindergarten in math is 169 and many are on track to get to this goal! (a couple already met it and will continue to work on higher goals)
2. Reading bag- 30 TOTAL NEW SIGHT WORDS ARE IN THEIR BAGS am, do, not, who, with— I, like, the, see, we, go, can, she, a, at, is, was, will, he, has, on, in, and, you, up, look, it, my, to, and dog. Practice each night to MEMORIZE THESE WORDS!* And work on using them correctly when speaking in COMPLETE SENTENCES for example: He (when talking about a boy) vs. She (when talking about a girl). And “on” like the book is “on the table.” 
3. READING GROUP BAG — 4-6 BOOKS are in bags to keep reading over break– most are review… make sure to fill in reading logs each day!!!! (Also can you login code and password to read/listen to more books on the computer) *students still have several books to review as we will be doing some testing over letters, sounds, and sight words this week to determine possible NEW reading groups and levels.

***IF YOU HAVE FLUENCY DOWN, PARENTS PLEASE EXTEND the reading by asking questions such as:

Find the WORD “the” on this page.
What LETTER/SOUND do you see/hear at the beginning of the WORD?
What LETTER/SOUND do you see/hear at the middle of the WORD?
What LETTER/SOUND do you see/hear at the end of the WORD?
After reading, can you RETELL what happened?? What happened in the beginning, middle, and end?

4. Math Homework-MODULE 3 Lesson 24 on page 293 (homework helper is on page 291).

NEW library books were chosen on Tuesday for those who returned their books. Remember these are great books for listening to reading and working on comprehension.. asking and answer questions about the story, like many students are doing on their story maps!!***RETURN TOMORROW (TUESDAY FOR LIBRARY CHECK OUT!!***

*No Poem this week, instead work on CLEVER and/or links sent home in blog posts today!

NWEA TESTING IS HERE:

(TOMORROW!!) Tuesday, January 14th will be Math

(NEST WEEK) Thursday, January 23rd will be Reading

The NWEA test is a VERY important piece of data that helps us determine if your child is on track and ready for 1^st grade (along with other pieces of information, such as DRA, math checklists, various performance tasks, etc.)  

It also allows us to see areas of strengths and weaknesses.  This allows us to focus instruction and provide challenging lessons at their level. 

It is important that students are prepared, take their time and take this test seriously. This is an online assessment and will be administered completely on a computer.

As discussed at parent teacher conferences in the fall, each student has a growth goal for this test.  We will be sending a NWEA report home with their report card to show you how they did and if the met their goal.

Thank you for your support to help each child do their BEST on this important TEST!

Mrs. Rawson and Mrs Fowler

1. Oakman Folder- sign and return behavior calendar for JANUARY!! ***2 red booklets were sent home to complete over winter break/month of January— start with booklet with numbers 1-2 on the front which we have done most of in class (see completed ones as “example”) then begin and finish booklet with numbers 3-4 on the front be THE END OF JANUARY. The space to draw a picture is a way to respond (make a connection) to the text (story). We are working on making sure our sentence matches the picture. Your kid will need SOME assistance completing this book but should do the circling words, underlining, drawing, and writing on their own. Again this won’t be due until end of January so work on a little each day. (at least 15 minutes of reading EVERYDAY!!!! ***If complete please write a note on the front and I will check tomorrow. THANK YOU!
