Re: IMA - I need you assistance please

I met with the principal and he informed me that the
administrative team talk about AR and already decided to stop
the AR program (keep the STAR). I still presented him with all
of the data I had with the 8th grade program. Due to our
district not following the best practices of AR, I am the only
person using it so its easy to dump. I closed out my classroom
and completed a three day class and then I put all my research
and documents together along with a best practices 9 page
document and suggested that we wait one year and implement the
program as it should be implemented and then decide if it should
be continued. I zapped that e-mail off today. It went to ever
person on the administrative team. I even volunteered to head
up the program and come in and answer any questions. So now I
wait and see.........

I also now need to research how I make up for this loss in my
curriculum and still monitor children and their reading
comprehension. My kiddos read 1,300 some odd books this last
school year. I can't fathom doing that many book talks, book
reports or projects!!!!

Please excuse me for not answering back sooner. I appreciate
your help Ima, Tom and test. I was busy ending the year,
cleaning my room and typing up all this research and taking a
class. NOw I can begin summer break!
