During the small group instruction time, your child will be going to different teachers/mentors to work in a small group. For example, they could be with Mrs. Davidson or Mrs. Branstetter working on reading. They could be working with Mrs. Ward or Mrs. Patredis on math. They could also be in the library doing an enrichment class. Every child's schedule will be different. This should help to prepare them for a middle school schedule, among all the other benefits.

Congratulations to Mrs Davidson's Homeroom Class for having the MOST students meet their STRIDE goal this week!
Stride Academy Homework REQUIRED
Starting this week, using Stride 80 minutes a week (20 min 4 times a week) is mandatory. Your child has been challenged. We have put up a football field on the wall. Their football player or cheerleader (they colored themselves) start at one end zone. Their goal is to move across the field to the other end zone. To do this, each week your child must meet their 80 minutes on Stride Academy goal. We will have twelve weeks to complete this challenge, including Spring Break. That means they only have 2 weeks that they can miss their goal. If they “score a touchdown,” meaning they met their 80 minutes goal 10 times, they get to attend a pajama, popcorn party the week of the STAAR test. There will be smaller rewards along the way. Please help them in their success by checking to make sure they are meeting their weekly goals.

Learning Targets
Language Arts- This week in Language Arts we will be reviewing our Benchmark that we took last week. We will be looking at a passage each day. We will be looking at strategies we use, why the answer is what it is, and if we got it wrong, why we got it wrong. We will also be starting our next DBQ about the Gold Rush. This one is a fun DBQ. They will be writing a journal of the travel from the East to California.
Math- We are continuing to broaden our understanding of multiplication of decimals. We will be multiplying tenths and hundredths using the partial products. I am so proud of our students who are directing their learning through the use of STRIDE as homework. Many students are right on track with the 80 minutes per week. This is a valuable life habit to develop. We are only a few months away from middle school!
Science- On Thursday, we will be taking our Earth and Science CBA. We started this unit back in November. It is a very large unit, so we will spend the beginning of the week reviewing for the test.
