FRIDAY, AUGUST 24

@@@@SRI (Scholastic Reading Inventory):

Today we went to the library and took a reading test. At the end of the test the computer calculated a "lexile" score for each individual. Student are now able to find books that fit their individual reading level based on this lexile score. Also, every student has the requirement of reading and passing an RC test on at least ONE RC book per quarter.

@@@LEXILE SCORE=COLORED DOT:

Some students wanted to write their lexile score inside their planners. This was optional. Every student was intructed to translate their score into the colored dot on the library wall (kind of like a chart of corresponding colors).

@@@@CHECK OUT A BOOK:

When students were finished with their SRI test they had time to look around the library and find a book to check out.

...Some students did not have time to finish the SRI test and check out a book. We will return to the library on Monday for a short time to allow every student the opportunity to complete the tasks.

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!
