Happy Thanksgiving

Not much going on this week.  We are doing MAP rewards in math classrooms Monday and Tuesday of this week.  If a student increased their score or met grade level then they receive 2 days of watching movies.  I hope each of you have a terrific Thanksgiving.  I absolutely love this time of year!!

Wild Week

I apologize for not posting in several days.  It has been hectic around here with Explore results, MAP testing, Veterans Day programs, etc.

We have been going over the EXPLORE results with each student this week.  Those results will go home with students some time next week.  We also took the MAP test and looked at data for each student as well.  Students will receive an award on Monday and Tuesday of next week if their score improved or they met grade level.

We will re-take Topic 6 test on Friday.
