LITERACY We have a school wide goal of implementing “Into Reading”. A research and evidence based literacy curriculum. Your child will receive a R.E.D (Read Every Day) bag with books at their level and books of their choice. We will also use Daily 5 as we practice independent reading stamina, fluency, writing and word work.
Math We will be using “Investigations” as our math curriculum . We will also use Daily 3 to practice independently solving math problems, working with someone and writing about how we solve a problem.
