Week 25

 



Happy Friday Team!

Here we are...one complete week of March is behind us and we only have three more before Spring Break.  These last weeks are going to be getting faster and faster with a lot of new and review instruction, focused and purposeful intervention, and end of year tasks (PTC/Report Cards/Full Lesson Observations).    

I hope you take time to have a restful and happy weekend.  

Week 25 Instruction
 
This coming week is Week 25 instruction. We will follow the Lesson 25 Scope and Sequence for ELA and use this week as a review week for math concepts that will be included in MSTEP.  Also, we will continue to implement Intervention plans which focus on ELA and Math Interim 3 Standards and continue our MSTEP preparation on Mondays.
