Winter Break December 18 - January 4
Students were encouraged to read for five hours over Winter Break and record it on a reading log. Students who completed the log were given a mechanical pencil and a chance to win a free Scholastic book or poster of their choice!
Lexiles
Mrs. Wickline began introducing the concept of lexiles and how students may use their personal lexile score and range through all Language Arts classes. Students can look up books in Destiny by lexile range which keeps them reading in their targeted zone for comprehension growth.
