math and reading

by ph

Jun 27, 2011

What are your favorite small group activities for reinforcing math and reading objectives for 4th grade? I am re-entering the classroom after being a school counselor the past 10 years. I was a 3rd grade teacher 19 years prior to that but with budget cuts whittling away at support positions I volunteered to go back into the classroom. I am very exc...See More

no child left behind?

Jun 27, 2011

My mother has decided to hold my little sister(9 yrs old) back in the fourth grade. She has recieved her best grades ever this year. She has ADD, but I(24 years old) do not see a real reason why she shouod be held back. My mother said that she talked to the school and asked them to hold her back because she was "immature". Can my mother and the sch...See More

. Since no one else has answered your question I will attempt to give you an answer. No child left behind does not refer to retaining students.

It is a broader idea of not leaving children behind in life because they do not have the basic skills for success.

There could be more than one reason a chld has received the best grades thi...See More

2. What assessments are used and what criteri...See More

Sam When you say "Describe the programs available", do you mean all programs that exist in education?

I'm the teacher moving from 2nd to 4th after 33 years in K-2. So I cleaned out my K-2 stuff and had a yard sale today. The prices were cheap and people bought, bought, bought. Everyone ended the day very happy (especially my husband).

Now my question for you .... I want to take about $100 from the yard sale and purchase some 4th grade thi...See More

How do you use leveled readers in your classroom?

by glenda

Jul 11, 2011

We have a lot of leveled readers with our new social studies and reading programs. Trying to decide how to best use them. I would love to know what you do in your classroom.

4th I have leveled readers with my Houghton-Mifflin reading series. I use them some of the time for different things, including fluency practice. Some of the books are about interesting people or events I think the kids should be exposed to. Other times, they are good for the specific strategies we are working on. We also have Vocabulary Readers that I...See More

student data books...anybody use them?

by arlene/4/ohio

Jul 11, 2011

Does anyone use individual student data books in their classrooms? We started a few years ago and would like to add to the existing ones...reading tests, math test graphs, attendance, behavior, reading levels, ect. Anything pertinent that we may have not accounted for?

Perhaps this year... I've been toying around with the idea of doing this with my students this year. When students learn to manipulate data, they develop a real-world appreciation for the importance of properly interpreting graphics/charts/pictographs in math/science, etc. problems. I'd be interested in hearing what all you include in your data books.
