Assessments
Can you believe the 3rd quarter ends on March 27th? I will start the lighter assessments next week (letter production, counting by 5s, counting by 10s, coin recognition). The more rigorous assessments will be administered after Spring Break (Rigby reading, PAWS sight words, writing a complete sentence, writing first and last name). Please email me with any questions.
