SRA & MM Weekly Grades

Just a quick share as we start the 3rd 9 weeks:

MM = Morning Math
     Each week, students are given a Drops in the Bucket (DITB) math review page to complete in sections (usually 2 sections per day).  They are required to finish the section and have it initialed each day.  Each initialed section = 20 points for a weekly "daily" grade of 100.  If a student has an unexcused absence, they lose that day's points (credit is given for excused absences).  Because the DITB is copied front/back, they will go home every two weeks.

SRA Update:
     We are continuing to practice reading skills with the SRA reading problem.  Students are still expected to complete one SRA card each week for two daily grades (comprehension and word study), one for each of the two sections.  For the first 9 weeks, students should have completed 12 SRA cards.  To start fresh in the new year, students who had less than 12 SRAs are starting over at one.  (They are not going to continue to be behind.)  If a student had more than 12 SRAs, they were able to count one of them as this week's SRA.  (They get credit for working ahead.)  Once students have completed their weekly SRA, they have the option of working on Versatiles, continuing with SRA, or independent reading.
