Tonight boys and girls you are to review with your parents the goals you have set and want to achieve by the end of grade 6. Make sure your are specific with the strategies you are going to use to accomplish your goals. If you want to improve your math facts, how often will you practice and what games will you play? If you want to improve your writing skills, do you need to work on organizing your ideas into paragraphs, do you need a graphic organizer, do you need to develop your vocabulary, know how to properly use quotation marks for dialogue, etc.? Where will you go for support? The more specific you are, the greater the chances of achieving your goals! How will you make it a very visual reminder for yourself and others to help keep you on track? (Make a desk reminder?)
Remember to return the orange sheet that you received at student-led conferences with a signature so I know you have discussed the goals you want to achieve with your parents. Of course you will be adding much more detail on Friday when we input are goals onto IRIS (computer program) and make a visual representation of your goals in your visual journal. If you would like to make an announcement over the PA system on Friday to remind the students and staff that we will be continuing the Midnapore Muscles, "Eat the Rainbow" initiative about eating healthy snacks for the month of April, you are encouraged to come up with a clever little slogan or blurb and submit it to me tomorrow. Starting next week April 10- 13th, it will be orange and red snacks! We are working on our graphing skills in JUMP math. Pages 123 and 124 are due tomorrow. We will be having our auction this coming Friday for Classroom Economy. If you ave any items that you would like to sell, you are welcome to bring them in!
