Thanks so much for attending PTA Open House. It was great talking with all of you and hope you enjoyed the slide show of your children! Above the children are busy in math centers! We used playdough to create "teen numbers". Number Bingo, Computers, Ipads and Legos were fun as well!Learning can be fun!
We have been busy MAP Testing and checking students off for DRA Reading levels. Baggies with lots of books and word cards went home with students who are practicing extra hard on reading.
A group of hard working readers accompanied me to the library to choose some "theme baskets" of their interest for close reading at home! Many of these students are reading at or above grade level and have been working very hard over the past few weeks! Others are working toward reading from these extra fun baskets by making progress here and at home in reading! Extra 10 minute snack time recess will given 2 times a week for students on all yellow! LISTENING is the key! The kids are doing wonderfully! We want to reward them! :)
We are anxious to begin our "Teacher Talk" notebooks that were purchased through a writing grant with Donors Choose. Individuals and corporations read your request and decide if it is "worthy" of their funds! We were fortunate to have some great support and purchase new mailboxes for Writing Center!
Next week brings Fall, Apples, and Fun! Work hard and Play Hard!
Have a great week!
Love the teacher writing notebook!!
