Where learning is engaging and fun!
Welcome to a new school year! I have spent a lot of time this summer preparing for an exciting and captivating school year. I have also done a lot of reading, kayaking, and swimming!
This year grades 3-5 will be transitioning back to the traditional grading system. This means the way students are graded and how it is reported on the report card will revert back to the A-E grading system, with a final grade in each subject being reported on the report card. Although it will be an adjustment for all involved (teacher, students, and parents), I really do believe it will benefit students in the long run. Grades 3-5 will have some new specials teachers for Music and STEAM, and special schedules are a little more complicated (not at the same time everyday). I am sure we will get used to this change. We will be continuing with Unlocking the Reading/Grammar Code, but transitioning to more emphasis on the Wonders Reading Series. We will be attempting to embed URC/UGC into the language arts curriculum. Please ask your child about what we are doing in class. Don't accept "nothing" as an answer. There is a lot going on! |
