Thank you so much for all you are doing to implement our foundational skills curriculum (Really Great Reading).  It is not easy to learn new things and all of you are doing such a fantastic job of diving in.  I have visited many classrooms over the last few weeks and it is so fun to listen to the students using the academic vocabulary to describe what they are learning.  I love hearing kids say things like:  \u201cthat is a schwa,\u201d or \u201cno, that is not a digraph, that is a trigraph.\u201d  So fun to see students moving forward in their learning.  Our students are already benefiting from this work!!  Thank you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Literacy Happenings (Lindsley)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Are you ready to start using Playgrounds as an assessment tool with Really Great Reading?Here is a resource<\/strong><\/a> to walk you through setting it up through using the data in your classroom. Scroll through to find the information you need. Also reach out to your instructional coach to get this set up and started in your classroom.

Hey Kindergarten, no need to teach the letter Y anymore or p. 170 in Countdown! Only kidding! 
But the Y page did get left out of the handwriting practice books. Here it is<\/a> and it has been added into the original packet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also many Countdown TEs are missing page 170. Here is a copy of that page<\/a>. The company has been contacted for any next steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Supporting English Learnings (Cate)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Providing time for students to think and process is important for all students but especially important for students who are still acquiring English.  Research indicates that allowing 5 to 15 seconds to process questions before students collaborate with others or to respond directly increases the number of students who engage while allowing students who are processing in two languages the time they need.  Give it a try in your classroom! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
