         WELCOME BACK!!   I really do miss my Students over the break so I really mean it when I say I missed you and am excited to be back.  THANK YOU for your thoughtfulness.  Your gifts were over the top!  I LOVED each and everyone.  It is fun to see how the kids pay attention and know just what I like, Thanks to ALL!!!        

Next week (MONDAY) we will be doing DIBELS TESTING.  This is a fluency assessment.  Speed is important. Your child will need to name as many letters as possible in one minute, 40 at random to be at benchmark.  Then they will name as many beginning sounds in one minute, 30 + to be at benchmark.  Also, be able to segment words (tell the sounds they hear), they need 20 to be at benchmark and finally, nonsense words this is just sounds in “silly” words, 17 of these!!  We have been practicing in class before Christmas and we will be practicing lots more, I think we should do very well.  Practice the letters and their sounds at home and make sure that your child has a good breakfast and PLENTY of sleep each night!!    They will do great!!  I will send you a copy of the results as soon as I get them!!
