Great day in Math today as we practiced 5 skills in one lesson. Students were paired up with another student and they had to measure the length & width of objects in the room as well as out in the hall. Then they had to find the perimeter & area of these objects. To find the perimeter & area, they had to use their multiplication & addition skills. So as you can see, we got a lot out of the lesson.
In Reading today, we took our SRI test. This is the one that goes along with the ReadAbout reading program that we do on computers. Students each had a goal to reach which was to go about 50 Lexile points above their Fall score. Many students achieved way above their goal, while a few fell below their goal as well as their fall score. I visited with your child about this and what they can do to help their reading such as spending time nightly reading as well as taking advantage of any extra we get here at school. We will take it again in the spring so they will have a chance to bring it up. Visit with your child about their score and if you do write SRI in the planner.
Today in Montana History, we learned about some fun games that Indian children played back in the early days. We have an amazing person here in the district that is going to come in this spring with some of these outdoor games and teach them to the kids. Needs to be spring due to the snow.
As you can see from the pictures, students just finished up a fun art project.
Have a great night.
