The students had some time on IRIS today to record a reading sample.  We did reflections about our reading, thinking about what strategies we use and what we need to continue to improve our reading.  We ran out of time so our Reading Samples are not completed but we hope to finish this on Monday.

We also spent time this morning working on developing a writing rubric, followed by a fiction writing assessment.  On Monday, the students will revisit their writing and use the rubric to assess it.  This will help students recognize their areas of strength in writing and what they need to work on as a goal.

FAMILIES HELPING FAMILIES

We are still in need of more gifts for our families that we are supporting this year.  This is the last week for students to bring in their gifts so please take time to check the FAMILIES HELPING FAMILIES BLOG to see what our family still needs.   Thank you
