My district is starting to have us test all the kids
for their reading levels. We are using Fountas and Pinnell,
but not the whole system. I'm pretty excited to get this done.
Does your district level the kids?
When do you get it all done?
Do you like the system you use?
#5:
We haven't had a full week of school in January.
Week #1 - Two cold weather days
Week #2 - Teacher Work Day
Week #3 - MLK Day
Week #4 - ??? It should be a full week, but rumors are swirling because
below 0 temps are predicted for Monday and Tuesday.
How has the schedule been at your school?
Here's to a great weekend!
I'm in IL too, and you will NEVER hear me complain about hot weather! I'm a hot weather girl! But I know what you mean....
ReplyDeleteWe use AimsWeb, Reading A-Z, Discovery Testing to level kids. We are getting rid of Discovery next year and using MAP (i think-if it's board approved). TOO much testing in my opinion. We also still use Terra Nova tests (supposedly getting rid of) AND ADDING quarter benchmarking. Did I say too much testing???
We now have WEEKLY 30 minute data meetings. We discuss the data... hasn't changed anything I've been doing...yet.
NOT looking forward to Monday and Tuesday!
