• Large Sound/Spelling Cards should be posted in ALL ELAR classrooms. These are excellent student resources for reading and spelling/writing.

• K-3 use Reading and Writing Companion book as appropriate/needed, 4-5 use digital R/W Companion as appropriate/needed

• K-2 follow scope and sequence of Wonders/Maravillas (Use TRS documents for extended understanding of TEKS), Gr. 3-5 follow TRS scope and sequence (YAG/IFD) - here are alignments of TRS and Wonders

• Wonders/Maravillas may be used for social studies, add extra time to ELAR block for this integration (do not have to show separate time for SS in daily schedule)

• Science should follow TRS YAG, using STEMScope as primary resource

Our C&I department at administration will be visiting all campus' once a month. They will come a 1/2 day in the morning or a 1/2 day in the afternoon once a month. They want to see all the great things we are all doing! Please do not change what you are doing when you see them. Just be you and continue with your day!

Here is the updated Elementary RTI Handbook. Our Interventionist went over some of the changes and we will go over the rest during grade level RTI meetings coming soon.

Changes are highlighted. The cut score criteria for first grade math with Blueprint will be updated soon. More information about RTI updates will be shared at the August 29 principal meeting.

iStation has made several updates that you will find very beneficial. This document will explain the updates and has several links for more information.
