What We're Learning this Week! {April 17th-21st}

Our K-PREP testing starts on Tuesday, April 25th, so our days are limited. We are making the best of them reviewing concepts and skills in a way that isn't as boring as traditional review. So, on Monday, in Reading, students reviewed skills by playing Trashketball! Who doesn't love getting to throw wads of paper trash across the room, basketball style, trying to earn points for their team!?

Tuesday, we completed our final MAP Math test for the 2016-2017 school year by once again using the Chromebooks from the comfort of our classroom.  Our score goal for end of the year in Math is a 223 and students worked feverishly to either raise scores to the 223 level, or to beat their own personal best if they had already surpassed this score earlier in the year. 

Other events coming up this week include:
Tuesday, April 18th - Spring MAP Math Assessment
Wednesday, April 19th - Walk the Red Carpet Event! {For students scoring Proficient or Distinguished on last year's K-PREP assessment}
Friday, April 21 - "Little Mermaid" Production @ 1:30
