STAR assessments

We took the Reading and Math STAR assessments today. These are computer assessments given multiple times throughout the year to monitor student understanding and to be sure that progress is being made. They are more for me than anything and are just another piece of the puzzle.

In our morning meeting, we shared our favorite color and then played, "Who am I?" Disney edition. In Wonder, Jack is still clueless as to why August is mad at him. He also describes an incident he had with August when he was younger. The kiddos haven't decided if they like Jack yet or not... Then, we took the STAR assessment in Reading, read independently, visited the library or finished our letter to Ian and did some free writing in our newly mod podged personalized notebooks. After lunch and recess, we took the Math STAR assessment and then had some quiet time before Math Workshop. In Math, we practiced subtraction with regrouping by playing a game and/or just practicing problems using base-10 blocks.
