We flexibly group students in Reading and Math. We initially looked

at EOG or other state tests along with gradesand any other data that was available to us from the end of fourth grade. We’re assessing students all the

time to see if their placement appropriate. The teachers will meet as a team during data teams to

discuss movement of students. Your child’s homeroom teacher will let you know if a move will occur.

Assignments are weighted (tests, projects, notebooks, quizzes, classwork, and homework)

Grades are entered every 7 days in Power School

Should be 45 minutes- not including assigned

Reading time
