Welcome Back to School - 4th Grade


We're moving on to week two!  The Title I staff  will spend the first couple of weeks in your child's classroom for about half an hour during reading. We are taking this opportunity to get to know all the students.

At the beginning of the year your child will be assessed on their reading, reading comprehension and fluency. Your child should now be reading to learn, not learning to read. This is when practicing reading non-fiction text and being able to support the answers using details from the text becomes really important. Writing is another area that they will need to practice and get good at. 


At CES, our mission is to offer each child the best possible education that we can. In order to do this we must all work as a team. The Title I reading staff and the classroom teachers meet  frequently to ensure all students are receiving the best reading instruction possible. When the classroom teacher is ready to begin small groups,  Title I reading teachers will support the classroom teacher by working with groups in their regular classroom or they may be taken to the Title I classroom. 

We are excited to say, we now work with all students!  If your child happens to be apart of a group that is working with the Title I staff this does not mean that they are struggling or in need of extra assistance. If your child is struggling your child's classroom teacher will let you know.
