Important Reminders and Updates
Book Study - Choice Words
Don't forget that we will be doing a quick activity at our PLC this week with our campus book study, Choice Words. You need to make sure that you have read chapters 1-4. The meeting will be a quick one finished by 4:00!
Reflex Math and I-station
Math/Science teachers 1st-5th grade, please make sure that you are running reports to make sure ALL of our kiddos are using Reflex math at least three times a week. (this can be homework for some or in class for those on Tiers) This is very important as we try to build on math fluency!
LA/SS teachers, 3rd-5th (for anyone) and K-2 (only ESL kiddos on Tiers). Please make sure that you are getting your kiddos on iStation either at home or in class if needed. This is critical for those learners who are struggling with reading/spelling and who are on Tier 2 or 3.
