*Preparing for Success

Spelling and Grammar are included with Scott-Foresman Reading Street. We will be taking Spelling tests on Tuesday mornings. Grammar tests will be taken on Thursdays. These test grades will be included in the Weekly Folders that students bring home on Mondays.

We will be involved in a very exciting, ongoing technology project.  We will be creating an student-directed and created online journal called The Coast to Coast Chronicles. This project is created collaboratively with over 200 students in grades 3-7 from five different states. Students apply their content area knowledge, writing and creating for an authentic audience through this project. All of our communication is with tools such as wikispaces, Skype, and Moodle.  Check out our journal here:  The Coast to Coast Chronicles  The writing and projects are graded according to the rubrics that the students create for each activity.
