Week of April 10th

SBAC testing starts tomorrow!  As a reminder, students can wear GREEN.  The students and I spoke on Friday about making sure they got a good nights sleep and a good breakfast.  I have told the students they can bring in a small blanket and a stuffed animal.   Students should also bring in their own headphones to use (for their comfort). Also, with a parent note, students can bring in gum to have during testing.  

In preparing for SBAC ELA testing, I have already told the students that there will be NO spelling list this week.  There is a list of words that students will be working on during Daily 5 (Word Work), but just in the classroom.  For homework, students will have: reading 15 minutes, fluency and a math worksheet.  Also, there will be no reading story this week.  Instead, we will be working on a two week POETRY unit in the classroom.  

In Math, we will finish Chapter 13 with graphing.  Our test should be on Thursday.  Students have been doing a great job with reading and interpreting bar graphs so far.  Now this week we will be working with line plots.  

As SBAC begins, if you have any questions or your child expresses any concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
