Don’t forget to work on your I-ready math when you are able to do so. / DCA – District Common Math Assessment!
All bellwork and homework for this week are due tomorrow! All assigned problems must be completed and students must show their work to receive full credit.
F / I-Ready Math (computer lab) - students will work on their I-ready math lessons in the computer lab. 60 minutes per week in I-ready math and I-ready reading are required. Students should do their best to pass the quizzes for each lesson. If a student fails a lesson quiz too many times, the program will “lock” him/her out of that lesson until he/she is able to get additional instruction from a teacher. This could affect the student’s ability to get all of his/her minutes in for the week if the additional assistance is not sought or time constraints keep the teacher from providing the needed assistance. The teacher can “unlock” the lesson once the student understands the material. / Happy Friday!
Have a great weekend! / Bellwork & homework for this week are due today! Students must complete all assigned problems and show their work to receive full credit.
