IXL Math is good for practice.

Math Stars[edit]

Check out Math Stars.

Accelerated Reader (AR)[edit]

Accelerated Reader (AR) books can be read any time (by students or by parents to students).

AR tests can be taken at any school computer, such as before or after school in the library or classroom. From a school computer:

  1. "Renaissance Place" from the desktop
  2. Login in as: "Student"
  3. "User Name" is their 7-digit DeKalb Country student ID (used for lunch)
  4. "Password" is the student's birthday as MMYY (December 30, 2006 = 1206)
  5. "Take a Quiz"

This activity is in addition to participation facilitated by volunteer AR testing in the classroom.

Reflections[edit]

Reflections

In Class[edit]

Growing Caterpillar Reading Tracker[edit]

A caterpillar on the wall of the classroom will grow throughout year as students read (or are read) books. Any book read by or to a student can count (Accelerated Reader (AR), at home favorites, those read in class, etc.).

Students, parents, and/or Ms. Danhi, write on one paper circle caterpillar segment [where do we get them?] for each book read:

  • Title
  • Author
  • Rating by Student [format (up/down, 1-5, their own words, etc.)?]

If a paper circle caterpillar segment isn't available, a read book's information should be added to the student's Reading Record [or Reading Log?] [Should it stay in thier folder?] [Did October's have pumpkins to color?], to be later copied to a paper circle caterpillar segment.

Finally, paper circle caterpillar segments, each with information on a book read by or to a student, are placed on the wall to make the caterpillar grow. Exciting!

Book Buddies[edit]

Book Buddies is [Not sure…] with Ms. Jasper's 3rd grade class. ([6])

Ideas[edit]

Thinking out loud about other ways to help our class.

Writing[edit]

Mentioned by Ms. Weirick's class:

3- Kid Writing Volunteers: Around 9am every day, the kids will be practicing their writing. A big help to Ms. Weirick would be for an adult to come by around 9am to help with this. The kids will have drawn a picture. The adult then encourages the child to write a sentence that explains the drawing. Of course, the adult may end up writing some words or all of the sentence, but it's great writing practice for the kids.

Classroom Assistant[edit]

Be a "second teacher" and help students during class.

Mystery Reader[edit]

Surprise the class and read the kids a story! If you don't want to bring your own book(s), Ms. Danhi can provide.

Homework Packets[edit]

Each Monday, a packet with the week's homework is sent home, to be returned finished by the student on Friday. Assist Ms. Danhi by making copies.

Discussion List[edit]

Use the class email discussion list (archives ) to communicate with class parents and Ms. Danhi. (Inactivated 2013-08-10)
