Reading is VERY important, it is incorporated into every subject from Science to Math.
4th grade requires that every student earns 12 points each six weeks using the A.R. program (unless other arrangements have been made between the student and teacher).
My classroom students are required to acquire 3 points each week to help meet their goals. The last week will be used to catch up on their points.
Acknowledgements (Twitter, School Facebook, Class websites, etc) will be given to all students who meet their weekly goal.
Students are able to test using their iPads. Please continue to encourage your child to read for at least 30 minutes daily so they will be ready to test and earn points.
