The Monday Make-up - September 16, 2019



I guess I have hit a new low - not getting this info out until Monday night but I was totally out of pocket this weekend and didn't get it done.  I promise I will do better this week!  Here is the nitty-gritty for this week.

Summer According to Humphrey
Students seem to be super excited about our Summer According to Humphrey - or at least super excited about our very own Humphrey.  We will pass Humphrey on each day to a new homeroom at morning assembly. Please have your students be very careful around Humphrey - a pet funeral is not part of our plans.  At the end of the day, please deliver him back to Mrs. Sarah's room yourself.  She will bring him to assembly each day.  

Remember to keep your class up with the daily readings and activities for each day.  Talk about all the important aspects of reading - characters, setting, plot, theme, main idea and the list goes on and on.  While we have students excited and hooked, we want to get them to learn as much as they can.

FIRST ROUND OF CPA TESTING SHOULD BE DONE DURING THE WEEK OF 9/23 OR 9/30 - BEFORE FALL BREAK!

This Week at a Glance....

Friday Focus - September 6, 2019

Midterm ended Friday and reports should go home with students on Monday afternoon.  The first mid-term marks the first 1/8 of the school year coming to an end.  Time is flying by!


As we finish the mid-term, I see a huge improvement in student behavior and procedures. Thank you for all your hard work toward that. 

PLC's and Panther Time begin next week - teachers need to bring MAP scores to PLC's as well as Chromebook or ipad.  We will also work to do our Data Charts for the year.
