Week of 1-16-2017
Hello all! This week we started our winter testing for Reading. We have a lot to do! I will be assessing your child’s growth for the second report card on all their reading skills in addition to their current reading level for the report card. Reading groups have not resumed yet, so please continue to read Raz-kids in addition to reading packs this week. I am almost done, so next week I’ll begin exchanging books again. We will also be taking the NWEA for math the week of January 22nd! I can not wait to see the growth we have made this year so far. We work on segmenting, and manipulating the sounds in the word families each week and I am pleased with our progress. This week we will move on to the -an family. Thank you in advance for spending a few minutes each night reviewing these words with your child. You’re amazing! Have a wonderful week and I will update/add to this post if needed.
