Math

Reading
This week we began visiting the
Reading Room. The students set up
their supplies and learned about
our daily routines. We began by
learning about our Fluency program
called SIX MINUTES. Each
student was assigned a partner and
a passage color. Every day they
read their passage with a partner
and focus on their expression, rate
and accuracy while reading. After
reading, we discuss what the main
idea of the passage was.
Who is your six-minute partner?
