Some of our students are having a difficult time in
the computer lab with their typing. Some ar enew to Britt David and to typing.
Please have you child work on the bbc site at home to become more comfortable
and more proficient in this skill. I sent the paper with the web address a
couple of weeks ago. If you have lost it, the site is on my webpage on the
website page. It begins with bbc schools. The kids usually really enjoy
working on it, and it will help them to enjoy the skill of typing.
AR
AR books come to school every day, they
come home every night. We will be reading them in class every day, so they
must come back to school. This is a change from Kindergarten. Help your child
to know when he/she is ready to take a test. They will sign up on the board
under our AR Test sign on the day they want to take their test. When they have
taken the test, they will put their name on the "get a book list" and will
usually get another book from the library that day. Students are required to
pass 1 library book AR test each week, and maintain an overall average of 85%
minimum. We want those averages to be much better than the minimum
requirement. This will help to teach your child about doing their very best.
Forgotten AR books are just like any other homework that is not done. It is
1st Grade policy to take 5 points from their weekly conduct grade for homework
that is not done.
AR ACCESS
If you requested access to the AR program
last year, then your information remains the same. If you need new access, you
can go to https://hosted50renlearn.com/58131 and log in as a parent and then
request access. Mrs. Williams will get you entered as soon as she can. This
will let you check on test and scores from home. You can also check to see if
books that you have at home for your child to read have an AR test available.
