62,693- That's the number of math problems completed by the students in room 313 since the beginning of the year using IXL.com! Spending only a few minutes each night has made an impact on how students approach math. Using IXL students have also gained confidence in their abilities to problem solve and complete tasks in a reasonable amount of time. Can we reach 100,000 by June 24th?

4/4 The Fraction of MCAS tests completed to date by your child! Yesterday's 1st session of Math MCAS was business as usual. Students took to their tests as if it were their job, using the pencil like a sword, they gave it a valient effort and left no stone unturned. Today they returned with revenge to conquer the "Beast" of all tests! In the end, we all came out with our heads held high!
1- Number of weeks we have left of spelling words and spelling homework for the year! Students will be given their FINAL spelling inventory using the Words Their Way program. Results and progress will be shared with you.
Infinity- The distance these students are willing to go and how hard they are willing to work!
Priceless= My job as an educator!
Last week was teacher appreciation week, I was surrounded by students who exude confidence and compassion as they graciously gave me notes of thanks and appreciation.
All touched my heart, but one gave me extra validation that my words are making an impact...
Hope you ALL enjoyed your Mother's Day Books as much as I enjoyed mine!
