Literacy ~ Room 208 http://room208msjacques.edublogs.org Reading to Learn about the world and ourselves... Tue, 02 Sep 2008 00:43:52 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 en And so it begins… http://room208msjacques.edublogs.org/2008/09/01/and-so-it-begins/ http://room208msjacques.edublogs.org/2008/09/01/and-so-it-begins/#comments Tue, 02 Sep 2008 00:26:18 +0000 msjacques http://room208msjacques.edublogs.org/?p=21 This past week I was able to meet my new 7th graders for the first time…

This week we will be doing an intial writing assessment~ this way I can see exactly where to begin our instruction… Next week, beginning on September 8th, we will begin our GRADE testing assessment. This is a reading diagnostic test that determines where every individual student’s strengths and weaknesses are. This will allow me to individualize instruction to the greatest extent possible.

Each of our lessons will be based on meeting the GLEs (Grade Level Expectations) for 7th grade. Our lessons and activities will be targeted on making the greatest amount of achievement possible.

Please email me with any and all questions!
