Reading and Language Arts
All students took their mid-year reading assessment (otherwise known as DIBELS/TRC) in the past 2 weeks. I am proud to say that almost ALL of the students increased their reading levels! Some students even jumped up many levels! Their end of the year reading assessment will be given in May. I can’t wait to see how far they go! Keep up all that reading at home!
