This week is a bit mixed up. Tomorrow afternoon (Tuesday), Mr. Sclater, Mrs. Hagen, and myself will be meeting with Randy Cranston about intermediate literacy and how to better keep kids engaged in school. As a result, there will be a teacher-on-call in the room for the afternoon. Then, on Wednesday, Mrs. Hagen and myselft will be going to a school district-sponsored seminar on assessment and evaluation for intermediate students. Sound exciting? Hopefully it will be!
I've started keeping students in at recess and lunch time if they have not finished work that was due last week, or in some cases, several weeks ago.
Lastly, interim reports came home today. Please read the report, and then sign and return the bottom portion of the page. If you would like to come and talk about anything, please indicate that as well. For a couple of students, I have requested an interview. So I'll be contacting you about that soon.
Homework for today:
Math: grade 5 - worksheet on patterns and tables, pages 1-4
all - math drills (x4) due Wednesday
Spelling: all students should have copied their spelling words into their planners today. Their homework is to finish the corrections from the pre-test and the worksheet on the other side.
Reminders: Scholastic orders due tomorrow (Tuesday)
Student information and emergency contact sheets are still missing for a few students.
