Announcements and Reminders

Reminders: 

Please be sure to send in $7 for our field trip to see "Ramona Quimby" at the 
Rivercenter, Feb. 2nd.

AR Store: Our soda well is dry! Please send in sodas for the AR store. Thanks 
in advance!
 
Ongoing: 

Please continue working with your child nightly to encourage their AR 
reading. We have set an additional goal to read at least two non-fiction 
books, on level, each 9 weeks. We have a special Hoskins' challenge to all 
get into the NF Club by Christmas as well! That averages about 1 per week! 
(They must score an 80% or higher on an on-level AR test for each NF book.) 
Understanding non-fiction will allow greater success in all areas of the 
curriculum!

AR Requirements: We set personal point goals for each 
student based on their own ZPD. All students are required to maintain an 
average of 85% regardless of their point goal. 

If you would like access to your child’s AR information and the AR Quiz list 
please go to the following site:

Their login is the 10-digit number they use to login at school. It is the 
school ID that will follow them throughout their school careers, so I've 
asked them all to memorize them. I have sent this number home on a notecard 
with each student. Their password is "INITPASS," just like at school as 
well.   

Enter as a parent and then click on Request Parent/Guardian Access.  Fill 
out the information requested. You can even get e-mail notification when your 
child takes a test!
