Trying something a little different this week... I purchased a book on teaching vocabulary through context clues and I really like it. So, this week each class will get a worksheet with their vocabulary words. Please check to make sure your student has that worksheet. We have cleaned out our 3 ring binders and set them up for the 3rd nine weeks. Now, we just have to keep up with our organizational skills.
Report cards went out on Friday. Some students received possible retention letters. Please sign envelopes and letters and return as soon as possible. I will be setting up conference times for parents who have questions and/or concerns. We are 1/2 way through the year and it is more important than ever that students hand in assignments and keep up with required reading and other work.
For the remainder of January, we will be focusing on EOG skills. We will be using our EOG practice books and doing daily drills. . . a little review bootcamp (if you will). This, of course, is not the only time we will prepare for testing.
