"Barrette" you can't guess who is in the
Behavior Log  Hall of Fame.

Fall is here and it is beautiful! The end of the 1st nine weeks is here too!  I really cannot believe how quick this year is going.  Already 1/4 over :(

Today, students were given two important pieces of data.  One was their Week 9 test results. (The scores were incredible - so proud.) The other is the almost report card grades.  Each student has a sheet for Language and Reading that tell exactly what their grade is at this point.  If they do not like something about their score they can bring me the completed/corrected work tomorrow and I will fix their grade.  The only scores that are not changeable are the Weekly Assessments.  Students are able to check and change their answers once while taking the test so the score already reflects them having a chance to redo it.  The only scores that have not yet been accounted for is the Personal Narrative in Language and the Lexile Score in Reading.  Students have until tomorrow to finish their personal narrative and they also have until tomorrow to quiz on books at their lexile. Passing 1 book at your lexile =C, 2 books = B, 3 books = A, 4 or more books = A+, 0 books = F.  This includes all books read and passed since the beginning of school, except the Chris Van Allsburg Books.  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to email me.  Although I would encourage you to ask your child first - they generally know the answer.
