On Monday's students will have an opportunity to work on concepts they received a 1 on to help review for the milestone. This is done via Quizzes.
HERE is a great site to check out more information on our current unit.
This week in Mr. Brumbelow's Class....
We will continue reading Ice to Steam by Penny Johnson. Our spelling words are listed below. We
will not be having a vocabulary test over these words, but it would
certainly help each student's comprehension if they were familiar with
these words. They will receive a paper copy of these words on Monday.
We
will also continue our NBI groups, System 44, and Read 180. For the
students that remain in my classroom during this segment, we will be
transitioning back to a fiction text for this NBI cycle.
