New Reading Counts Goal
With the new trimester starting on Monday, Nov. 5th, comes new goals! Every trimester, we reset ourselves back to zero points, and begin earning points again. So, your child will start back at zero points on Monday, and will need to earn 18 Reading Counts points for this trimester. I will send home in their report card what they achieved for the 1st trimester. They set new goals in their data notebooks for the upcoming trimester. Hopefully they are getting the hang of Reading Counts and how it works by now.
