Families~
Hope you are enjoying your snow day!!! Here's a few updates with what's going on in class:
1. Multiplication Tests. Things are going well...but could still use improvements. Please keep encouraging and checking in with your child about their progress on the timed tests.
2. STAR Tests. We will STAR test the 1st week of December (next week)!!! These are the tests we looked at during conferences, and I'm expecting to see some awesome growth during this half-way check! I'll be conferencing with each student individually this week to let them know of their goal on the STAR and fluency checks for the winter checkins.
3. Book Orders. The flyers went home right before Thanksgiving Break. This will be the last opportunity to order a book or two for your student in time for Christmas!
4. Please keep the conversations about school going every night! Last week, we had 9 students not turn back in a form, even though we had it written in the planner and it was in their home folder. Please just continue the full triangle of student-teacher-parents going so we can keep working towards independent success.
5. Blog. Please remind your child that when they say they are bored at home, they have the ability to log in to many different programs on the blog that would really benefit them in the long run. (And I have checked every day to see which students have logged in over this extended break - very proud of them)! It's such a good routine to get in, especially with Christmas Break around the corner!
