January Tidbits

MLK Day is Monday

We do not have school on Monday (Hoping you're already aware of this??? 😀) Monday is a very special day particularly for people responsible for shaping the lives, hearts and passions of the next generation. We have no explicit requirements for MLK Day, but please bear this transformative learning in mind as we celebrate the growth toward achieving Dr. King's dream and an awareness for the improvements we have yet to grow into as a nation and people serving ALL of God's Kingdom. 

Assessments

We're in the window of NWEA/MAP, Delta and Running Records. Talk with me, please, if you need help or assistance to get it all done. Fweew! It's a LOT, friends, but also SO encouraging to see this growth in our learners! Your hard work is paying off!!! God is growing our children faithfully! 

Report Cards

Will go live on Friday, January 21st at 3:00! 

Data Meetings

The week of January 31 is our week to review and talk about each learner. 

• Please invite me to a time that suits your grade level team's calendar. 
• Please input the instructional reading level for students previously in the yellow or red. Over achievers feel free to input greens but not required ;) 

Black History Month

As you are crafting your plans for February, please keep in mind/heart an eye for your authors, illustrators, historical heroes, characters of study, scientists, etc. We tell a story by the resources and people we highlight. 

2/22/22

Do you have a tutu handy? Let's think about some fun, creative ways to help the students acknowledge the uniqueness of Tuesday, 2/22/22 is coming up and VERY unique in the lives of our children who are studying number sense, place value, patterns and calendar! Let's make it memorable! 

Summer Work
