It is that time again!! CGA's! Or in other words, Curriculum Guide Assessments. Students have worked hard all nine weeks on many reading benchmarks. This is their time to shine and show what they know! We usually get our scores pretty quickly so ask your child how they did on their test.
Reading
Last we began our focus on the big benchmarks that will be on the FCAT coming up in April. Students are doing a great job reading passages and understanding them now it is time to practice understanding types of questions and practice some test taking strategies and tips. Ask your child what benchmark we worked on and what their reading passages were about.
Writing
Students are going to write a biography. I have assigned them to choose a person they would like to know more about. They need to research and have at least 2 sources for their report. More information will be coming. Ask your child who they want to learn about and what they have learned about him or her so far.
Dates to Remember

Until next time,
R. O'Steen
