September 12 TPRI testing week, Review Reading Week, and Grandparents Day

Parents and Readers of this Blog:

     Our new reading list will be rescheduled for the week of September 19th. 

This week we will be testing our students on the TPRI test.  This test will measure:

• Book and Print Awareness*
• Phonemic Awareness
• Graphophonemic Knowledge and Word Reading
• Reading Accuracy
• Reading Fluency
• Listening Comprehension
• Reading Comprehension

*from TPRI website

  This test is very comprehensive and time consuming so your child will be reviewing concepts that they have learned over the past 3 weeks while the teacher is administering the exam.

Each exam is individualized for each child and will give a very good measure of your child's reading ability.

 This is a very long week for your students since they will have to work quietly at their desk while the testing is going on.

  

Grandparents Day

Grandparents day is Monday, September 12.  Please invite your child's Grandparents to see a wonderful show with their grandchildren. Due to limited space it is only for Grandparents and their student grandchildren.
Monday, September 12, 8:30 A.M.
