We have been so busy finishing up all objectives for the STAAR test.  We will be taking the first administration for the math and reading STAAR tests on April 1st and 2nd.  Just a couple of reminders for this coming week and the test days:

Please have your students practice on Study Island nightly.  All of the objectives have been assigned for weeks under "Math STAAR Review" and "Reading STAAR Review".  These games and lessons are designed to help your students master the objectives.

They will be attending camp sessions all week to focus on specific objectives that have been challenging and will be participating in activities with each teacher in their groups.  They will be rotating through all 4 teachers in their respective groups.

A Sign-up Genius email has been sent out.  Each teacher has activities planned that require some hands-on supplies.  We are in need of snack sized Skittles packages (9-10 big bags), Smarties candies (one for each of the 90 students) and then peppermints for their STAAR snack bags (3 peppermints per student for a total of 270 mints). 

They will need their electronic devices with a QR scanner app for reading camps thsi week also. 

Thank you for everything you do for our students!  I am confident that they will all do well.  Please offer encouragement and motivation to help tone down test anxiety leading up to the test. 

Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend!
