The start of the new school year is always so busy! I am left wondering where the time has gone. We have been busy working away in 5th grade. We are preparing to type our Personal Narratives at the end of this week. We have worked really hard on getting them finished. I can't wait to read the final stories. I have read some interesting titles, so I know they are going to be good.
We already have fall NWEA testing behind us, which is a relief. The kids took this round of testing seriously, which made me very proud. Their scores should reflect that, too. (Scores will be sent home with your child's midterm.)
We signed AR contracts at the end of August/beginning of September and we have been reading a lot ever since. I will be conferring with all of the kids at midterm to share with them the progress of their goals. Continue to encourage your child to read each day at home too.
Last, but certainly not least Mr. Hoffman starts student teaching in our classroom next week. We are looking forward to the wonderful topics and lessons he is going to share with us. I am sure he is anxious to get started.
As always if you have questions, comments, or concerns contact me by email or phone. I am looking forward to the rest of the year!
