This week and next week we will begin mid- year I-Ready testing in the areas of Reading and Math.The testing window is December 4 -13th. Gr. 4-5 are beginning this week. Your child's teacher will share with you the exact dates they intend to assess your child. During December we will also be taking a good look at reading and math skill and strategy development through a number of formative assessments. Our goal, through assessments, is to monitor student progress in order to challenge our students or intervene. We like to keep a good eye on growth and progress and plan accordingly.
The week of December 16th-19th- There will be a Secret Santa Shop sponsored by our lovely PTO for all our children. More details to come. It is a tremendous week for our children.
To celebrate all the winter holidays together, we will have some spirit days during the week of December 16th-19th. More to come. We enjoy our spirit days as a school community.
Our Lunch changes for this week and after Thanksgiving break:
Tuesday- December 3
- Soft Pretzel
- Broccoli
- Fruit
- Milk
Save the date! Our 2nd and 3rd grade winter music program is Thursday, December 12th at 6:00 pm in the Northridge Elementary Auditeria. Attached, you will see the letter that students brought home with great information. Below, Ms. Rodesh linked Google Folders with the lyrics and recordings for each song. You can access them by scanning the QR codes on the attached letter, as well. Ms. Rodesh will send updates when speaking roles have been assigned and added to the Google Folder. Please let her know if you have any questions or concerns. The songs are sounding beautiful and we are so excited to share them with you! HERE IS THE LETTER,
