Dear Parents,
This is
the start of a very successful week as we will begin practicing many skills we
learned this week. New skills will be introduced this week and students will be
tested on these skills on Friday. The DOL, Math 4 Today, Spelling, and Reading
Comprehension test will be Friday. Vocabulary and Spelling words are on the
home connection sheet sent home with your child today. If the last page of the
home connection sheet is completed correctly and you sign the front, then your
child will receive 5 bonus points on the reading comprehension test on Friday.
The
Reading comprehension test is not something your child can study for. It is an
assessment based on skills they have learned this week. A story will be given
to your child and he or she will read it carefully and answer questions at the
end of the story. This is called a cold read. I
I
apologize for not getting the book talk calendar out last week but I will try
and get it to you this week. We will not begin the book talk until September.
This
week I will begin adding new things to my blog like pictures and student work.
So check out the blog every few days because I will be updating with new
information and how our day looks.
Thank you
Mrs. Campbell
