* Please make sure all READ plans have been shared with parents. 

* Sign up for DRA/F and P testing in the lounge.

1)  Because of CMAS testing, some of the dates need to be reserved for intermediate only or primary only.  Please pay attention to this as you sign up!!

2)  All testing must be done and entered into CITE 6 by May 1 at the latest.  We will have a CITE 6 data entry help session on April 25 before school - only take the days after this if you feel comfortable entering data on your own.

3)  As we usually do - if you prearrange a sub, send the info to Kristi so she can enter it.  If you choose to take any sub available, enter it yourself and use the code "Planning time".

4)  Subs are SO tight at this time of year.  Please know that if a sub doesn't fill for the day, you will have to be in your classroom as we have no other option!  Thanks for understanding. 

Book Fair

The book fair will be March 12th - 16th. Please sign up for a time for your class to preview the book fair. The sign up will be in the lounge on March 5th and the preview will be March 12th. Remember to send pictures of your pets to Linda at Lgen4@yahoo.com by Monday!

1st Grade Technology CoTeaching
First graders demonstrated their skills as mathematicians and coders this week. Using Dash, students were asked to demonstrate their understanding of measurement, skip counting by tens, and programming Dash. Students started by using Dash to discover how many tens are in a meter stick. From there we had two different tasks where students designed playgrounds for Dash and then programmed him to travel along a specific path.
