Proud Teacher Here!

Yes, way to go Team Hankins!!!  Mrs. Stott said yesterday went great.  Glad that "true character" shined through.
Today was another good day so we snuck in a little afternoon recess.  Enjoyed by all-now they all know that if they work hard and show respect to themselves & others throughout the day that there will be some "give & take" and a little fun as an added bonus.
As you know, the testing season has started.  Today, we practiced for the SBAC tests which won't start for us until April 14th, but now students know where to go so they can practice at home.  It is on the Bitterroot Learning Links at the very bottom.  They enter as a guest each time for practice.  This is an option for at home and we will do lots more practice here at school.
Tomorrow, my Lead 21 kids will take the SRI reading level test again to see how much growth they have made since January.  Some of the Read 180 kids have amazing scores.  So proud of them.  Let's hope we all shine and do our best.
Today in Math, we added fractions with unlike denominators where we had to find the least common denominator.  Multiples and/or count bys came in handy for this.  Have your child show you how to add 3/4 + 7/16 in the planner for free money.
Nova theater tryouts were last night and everyone made it so now they are on to practice each night until their performance March 20th.  Those proud of those involved.  What a great experience. :)
Silent Ball-Mrs. Neese's favorite game today.  Fun to  watch as it was totally silent with lots of strategy involved.
We had 4 people that didn't have recorders today so hopefully they show up tomorrow.  Can't play & perform without them.
Remember Subway Lunch tomorrow for winning the Read-A-Thon
Have a great night.
