Well, the first week of school is under our belts!! The kids seem to be getting the hang of lockers, locating classrooms, and getting to lunch on time :)
This week I assigned three "easy" assignments, but the assignments will be graded. These will be graded mainly for completion and having the work turned in on time. There was PLENTY of time to complete assignments in class.
Next week we will be taking pretest; the scores are NOT recorded as grades, but provide me with information. We will also begin working with the atlas and the textbook. I told the kids I would not be assigning individual textbooks this year. We will have books available in the classroom, and if needed, I will have books that can be checked out for homework completion.
Have a great weekend. Go PINK ARROWS!
