It has been a long time, but I was able to send home behavior slips (to help with "naughty and nice", possibly). Please ask your child to see it (if he/she was here at the end of the day, today).
Also, we had a problem with the last reading comprehension test. Much of the class tanked on the Word Family part. They did not read the directions and instead of choosing word family members, most chose synonyms (out of habit). Since this is the first year with this newly adopted reading series, I turned it into a "teachable moment" and pointed out how one must pay strict attention to following direction, as well as how we studied the word family "ear", which is what they were looking for on the test.. If your child was one who did well, I'll count the grade, but if not -they will not be entered into the final score. I'll send those home on Monday, but don't panic if the scores are not up to what you are accustomed.
