3rd Grade Narrative Writing Pre-Assessment
We have scheduled the Narrative Writing Pre-Assessment on Tuesday from 9:25-10:30. Third year students will need to be logged in to Google Classroom Writing Scrimmage before joining the third year open meeting on Zoom. This pre-assessment should take about an hour to complete.
i-Ready!
SCCPSS is implementing an online instructional program called i-Ready to support students in the acquisition and enhancement of Math and Reading skills. i-Ready Instruction provides students with lessons based on their individual strengths and areas for growth. These lessons are interactive and provide strategic support, to keep your child engaged as they learn. We will be administering diagnostic assessments 1/25-2/5. More information and a schedule will provided to you in an email.
Boosterthon Dance Fit
Register your student at www.funrun.com and share your page link with family and friends.
Boosterthon has partnered with Just Dance to bring a Dance Fit event which will take place on January 20, 2021. Students will meet virtually with their favorite Booster teammates, earn prizes for pledges, and have lots of fun dancing! We have met 32% of the PTA's goal of $18,000 to help fund teacher grants, student experiences, and school materials that enhance the Montessori learning environment at Ellis.
Our entire community will be rewarded with the prizes below for receiving pledges! The Blue Jays and Cardinals are tied at $24 per minute of dancing during the Dance Fit Event on Wednesday. That means they have already won the first 3 prizes on our community pledge-o-meter!
$5 Cool pencils and erasers!
$10 Wear a hat to class!
$20 Wear a costume to class!
$30 Crazy Hair Day!
$40 Unmuted Morning Meeting!
