Welcome Back

We had a great first and second day!!

Here is the study guide for this week.  Students must learn their lunch number by the end of the week.  We are also practicing The Pledge of Allegiance.  Students will recite this on Friday.

Start of Second Nine Weeks

As we begin our second nine weeks I would like to make you aware of opportunities you have to view grades and tests taken.

       STI at home is a wonderful tool.  I personally use this with my children.  The cost is $15 for an entire family.  This allows you to view grades and attendance records.  I update my STI weekly.  If you purchase this for your family, you will be able to view all grades I have given and the current average.  I strongly suggest this for all my parents.  For more information contact the board at stihome@bibbed.org.

            Each student is given an AR Goal each nine weeks.  The entire class reached their goal for points.  However, we are lacking in our comprehension.  All students should be averaging 85% or better.  You are able to view their test taken from home.    

Use your child's name and password when logging in.  (Students know their user name and password)

           The reading and language tests are able to review after the students have taken them online at www.thinkcentral.com .  At the site students can view the story for the week including spelling and vocabulary words.  Your child should know their user name.  All passwords are westblocton.
