Updates for the Week of April 3-7

Goal progress for Reading

In February we began to set goals for how many books we would like to read before the end of the school year.  As teachers, we set a target of 80% of the goal will need to be met before the end of the school year for the students to earn a pizza/pool party.  We cannot believe how amazing their progress – students have read 478 books out of our 584 goal.  Our book chain is ¾ of the way around Miss Utech’s room.

Headphones

 It is critical that students have headphones for FORWARD testing.  This is held at the end of April.   Please check with your child to ensure they have working headphones here at school.  We will start checking them the week of April 17^th.
