Class Rules

• Do your best

• Be mindful of others

Do your best

As students mature and become more and more responsible, the most successful students are the students that no matter how they are feeling (if they are frustrated, confused, upset, or just do not like that class) they try the best they can that day.

Be mindful of others (and your actions)

As a student it is your responsibility to help your classmates learn. No one student has the right to disrupt others or make it more difficult for them to learn. Make sure you are coming to class ontime, you are unmuting yourself and coming on camera when asked, and when not asked you make sure to put yourself on mute and you are not acting silly or being distracting on camera.

Feverish Fluency Flipgrid

• The only way to improve at something, is to practice.

• Fluency means how many words we can read in 1 minute.

• When our fluency is strong, our brain spends less energy thinking about how to read a word, and we are able to spend more brain power comprehending what we are reading.

• When our fluency is weak, our brain is spending more energy trying to decode or read a word, which means we are less able to comprehend the story.

• Which would you rather be doing: Learning to read or Reading to learn?

That's all Folks

have a

great school year!
