Students use headphones every day in ELA. Please make sure they have some and bring them daily.
In ELA, we are currently reviewing literary elements and devices and diving deeper into our understanding of key literary terms. We are also focusing on strengthening academic vocabulary to better prepare students for the language they will encounter on the EOG.
Next week, we will begin an iReady challenge, and I truly believe this will motivate students to complete and pass their lessons with greater focus and effort. I’m excited to see the growth that will come from this!
Thank you for your continued support at home.

Reminders
Please help students remember to follow both classroom and PCA expectations each day.
Some students are not completing their reading logs and are receiving 0’s. This is an easy 100—please make sure they are filling these out nightly.
Students should bring their supplies daily to class: headphones, pencils, notebooks/binders, and other needed materials. Being prepared helps them succeed!
Thank you for your continued support at home—it makes all the difference!
