80s day, Recess Fun and New NWEA Schedule

80s Day
Monday, January 13th is 80s Day at South Pointe Scholars.  Students are welcome to wear 1980s style clothing.  Think: leg warmers, layered clothing, multi-colored socks and t-shirts, jeans with cool cuffs, denim jackets and big hair.  Students who do not want to participate must wear their uniform.

Recess
The students had a great time at recess on Friday.  Thank you to the families who sent warm coats, boots, hats, gloves, and snowpants!  The students really do learn better in the afternoon when they are able to get out into the fresh air and play.  Thank you to our recess aids, volunteers, parent visitors, and Mrs. Kouba for making outdoor recess possible!


NWEA Schedule
Our schedule for testing has changed.  We will now test on the following dates and times:
  • Tuesday, January 21st Reading @9:45 a.m.
  • Wednesday, January 22nd Math @ 9:45 a.m.
  • Thursday, January 23rd Language Usage @ 9:45 a.m.
Please ask your child about their action plan.  We are working really hard in the classroom on individualizing their learning and their goals.  One way you can support this from home is using their action plan to focus their learning beyond homework.  If you are unsure at all about how to help them reach their goals and use their plan, please email me.  I have lots of ideas.
