I hope you guys had a wonderful long weekend and had some time to get outside and enjoy the sunshine!! It was definitely HOT!!!
This week is short but it is going to be busy for the kids. They are going to use a lot of brain power this week. It is important that all the kids have ear buds or headphones this week. So if your child hasn't brought in headphones and you are not able to supply them please let me know and I will take care of trying to get them some by Wednesday. We will be taking the first set of NWEA tests this week. This is a baseline test at the beginning of the year and we will use this data to help the kids set goals and track growth through 4th grade. This is not a test they need to study for it is simply a standardized test that will show us where they are in math in reading. Math: We will use math time to take the NWEA this week and then we will reteach and reassess Topic 1 on Friday. I have graded the math tests from Friday and they were decent but some are still struggling. So we will take some time to go back over those topics and give them a chance to reassess. I will message on Seesaw when I send tests home. I have a couple of students that still have to take their assessment so I will wait to pass them out all at once. Writing: We will continue working on our first narrative story. We are completing our rough draft and will start the editing process later this week. Science: We are wrapping up our animal presentations and will be moving on to plants. We will look at the different parts of a plant and the significance to their survival. Be looking for a Seesaw activity showing what they have learned about animals early this week. Reading: We will discover students independent reading levels. Once I have determined all students reading levels I will send them home so you too are aware where they fall at the start of 4th grade, as well as where they should be. Leader in Me: Students will be challenged with a Kindness BINGO board this week. They will see if they can complete enough random acts of kindness to blackout their entire board. So be looking for great help around the house! :) I hope you have a wonderful week! As always if you have any questions or concerns please reach out at any time.
