Please make sure you have signed up to meet with your student’s teacher. We will be offering a parent education night about how to respond to bullying on Oct. 30th at 4:00. We are so excited to share our policy and how families can partner to support students. Please RSVP for this event. Interpretation services will be available. At Cory, we will teach all our students 4 new whole school words every month. They will be words the students are unlikely to hear in everyday conversations, but will encounter when reading. Students with bigger broader vocabularies tend to be better readers. (Lehr et al., 2006) Did you know that students in elementary school need to acquire 3,000 new words each year to maintain average reading and writing growth? (Verhoeven and Snow, 2002) Our hope is you will partner with us and attempt to use these words in your life outside of school. Students will be able to share when they heard or used the words each month by writing about it and placing it in a bucket outside room 204. This month’s words are emulate, foliage, decorously, luxuriate. We hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! |
