It's been another great week in Language Arts--SAGE is finished! I'm really pleased on how many students made growth this year (woot!) and big congrats to the 80 students who reached their SAGE goal. Very cool! Although the test was difficult, they powered through and gave it their all. I'm so proud of them.
For the rest of the year, we will be working on poetry and reading in-class novels. I let the classes vote on which book-to-film novel they wanted to read and I'm excited about great literature to dive into, including: Maze Runner, Hunger Games, Max: Best Friend, and The Giver. I'll send home permission slips for the movie. This will be a great way to finish off the year!
Monday will be our annual end-of-testing Waffle Party. Your child may have volunteered to bring something...please ask them.
Let's get those grades up and finish strong! Please remind your child to keep reading and that I'm here to assist anytime. You know where I am:)

Solo and Ensemble Night
A perk of having my own daughter at Lava Ridge, is being able to see students shine outside the classroom. Mad props to these talented musicians, who I am lucky enough to teach! Well done everyone!
