Third Grade Reading Law

This school year, Michigan’s third grade reading law goes into full effect. According to the State of Michigan, students who are more than a year behind on the Reading M-STEP, will receive a retention letter from the State of Michigan. Students will take the M-STEP in the Spring. Mr. Zielinski will be talking more about this law on Thursday, September 12th, at 5:45pm. This meeting will take place in the cafeteria.


PBIS Expectations

Within the whirlwind of the first week of school, we discussed and practiced our PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions and Support) expectations for the office, classroom, hallway, bathrooms, playground, and cafeteria. The students came up with many examples, as well as non-examples, of expected behavior at all of these locations. I am confident that students in Room 129 will continue to be respectful, responsible, and safe throughout the coming months. Students who continue with great behavior throughout the year will be rewarded weekly and monthly.


Math

Allen Park Public Schools will continue to use the Math in Focus curriculum. We will be starting math this week. Chapter 1 is about Place Value and Numbers to 10,000.


English Language Arts

Every week your child will read an anchor text as well as a paired text. The anchor text is used to work on fluency, comprehension, and vocabulary skills and strategies. The paired text may be similar in theme and or genre. This text will reinforce vocabulary usage. Student understanding of the anchor text and vocabulary will be assessed on Fridays.

Students will also work on grammar and spelling throughout the week. Assigned spelling words will also be assessed on Fridays.
