Week of February 7-11

I apologize for not updating my posts lately. January came and went quickly!

As you may know, fifth grade took Practice TAKS tests on Wednesday and Thursday last week. These tests were exact copies of the TAKS tests given in the Spring 2009. The scores from these tests will be used to guide instruction for regular class and tutoring.

Tutoring notices/permission forms are being sent home on Monday, February 7. Please ask your student if they recieved a notice. If you have any questions about tutoring classes, please feel free to contact me.

Homework/Tests will be set up differently starting this week. Daily homework will be in the form of a TAKS Pack which focuses on review of previously taught objectives. Tests will be based on the information reviewed each week. Students who score a 100% on each test will be awarded with a personalized Star on the TAKS PACK ALL STARS wall. Students who score a 100% on five out of six tests given, will receive a large personalized Star on the TAKS PACK ALL STARS wall.
