News this week...
The iReady inform is now complete for all students in our class. You may check your child's score through the parent portal. This information is used as a starting point for your child in reading this school year. We have set individual goals in our data binders and will track progress throughout the year.
As we have done in previous years, every child is expected to complete 45 minutes of iReady each week and the goal is to have a pass rate of 75% or higher. We will keep track of this progress in our data binders as well.
Speaking of data binders...new at LOE this year will be our "Student-Led Curriculum Night" held on September 29th at 5:30 p.m.! I will share a short curriculum presentation which will be followed by time for you to have a conference with your child to share the goals they have set for this school year. More details to come! This will be held for grades 2-5 only.
On Monday, your child will receive a special QR code that is a link to parent access on a site called Seesaw. This is an online portfolio and assignment site where you child will complete some classroom activities. If you would like to view your child's submissions, please use the QR code to create an account. You'll be able to view and leave comments on your child's work!
Reminders...
Students sit outside under our classroom windows in the morning starting at 7:45. The first bell rings at 8:15 to enter the classroom. Breakfast is available to all students during that morning wait time.
If you have a transportation change, please be sure to call it into the office by 2:15 p.m.
We will have T-shirt Tuesday every week for the first quarter - thank you for reminding your child to pick a shirt to share every Tuesday.
I will be reading three Sunshine State books to the class as read alouds that they do not need to read on their own. These include The Last Resort, The Sherlock Society, and The Lion of Lark-Hayes Manor.
