Weekly Newsletter 
The Week of August 26th


MAP Testing
Most students completed their Reading MAP test last week. Some students were unable to login or did not complete the assessment. These students will complete the Reading MAP test this week. Our community will take the Math MAP assessment on Wednesday. If your child is in first grade, they need earbuds to hear the assessment. Please send in earbuds for your student if you haven't already.

August Birthdays Celebration
We will celebrate our August birthdays this Thursday afternoon. If your child was born in August and you would like to send in a treat for the class, please send in 25 healthy treats on Thursday.

Dress Down August 31st
There will be a $1 dress down on August 31st for Oatland Island. Students are encouraged to dress like their favorite plant or animal! All proceeds will be donated to help the recovery effort at Oatland Island. 

Homework Options
We sent homework options with students on Friday afternoon. If you need login information to access Moby Max or XtraMath please send us an email and we will get it to you. Login information for Khan Academy will go home after we collect data from the math MAP assessment.The weekly reading log is double sided, so it is good for two weeks. Please start using the new reading log this week and turn it in on Monday, September 10th. 


Volunteering
Are you interested in working with our students this year? We could use your help with science experiments, reading with students, and doing art projects. If you have a special talent that you would like to share with our community, please send us an email and fill out an Operation Beacon volunteer form.
