Weekly Objective Results
We will continue to work on the multiplication facts. Most everyone is on the 8's -12's, but we have 2 students working on division facts as they have mastered multiplication! Great job Noah and Charvi!
Citing text evidence continues to be a chalenge. 13 of our 23 students passed with an 80% or higher. We will continue to work on this skill.

Star Student
My name is Noah Wesley. I am 9 years old. I was born in Kentucky. My favorite sports to play are football, basketball, and soccer. Some other hobbies I enjoy are piano, writing, and drawing. I also like to play video games. My favorite color is green and my favorite food is steak. My favorite animal is a snake. I like learning new things at school. My favorite subject is science because you never know what will happen. When I grow up I want to be an inventor because it is a creative job and I think it would be a lot of fun.
