ROAR Test
We finished up the ROAR test today. I will be interested to see the results. The results will be discussed at parent-teacher conferences. The class has been working very hard this week and doing a great job. I am so proud of them. Accelerated Reader has really become popular among the students. I have never seen them so excited about reading. Next week we will also be starting the Book-It program sponsored by Pizza Hut. I am sure that AR and Book-It put together will really light the "reading fire" in each student. Thank you for your support at home.
During the month of October, we will be doing two service projects. The first one involves collecting underwear for St. Vincent de Paul of Brown County. The class that collects the most wins a pizza party. The other project is collecting bags of paper to be recycled here at school. I know there is a prize for this one, but I am not sure what it is. It might be a pizza party as well. Please send in at least one bag of paper and one pair of underwear per student.
