In Language Arts today the students wrote a personal narrative in order for me to obtain a baseline of their writing abilities. I will grade the essays and enter the scores in the gradebook as the first formative grade of the marking period. I will go over individual scores and set goals with the students based upon these essays within the first few weeks of the marking period. This was not designed as a test, but rather a way for me to see what the students know about writing at this point.
The students were also given time to work on their All About Me posters. We will present these in class on Monday.
Tomorrow is field day! The students should wear school appropriate play clothes in order to be prepared for the activities they will participate in. Due to these activities, I will not be posting to the blog tomorrow.
Have a wonderful weekend!
