More Classroom Technology Available!

I am excited to inform you that in addition to our new classroom blog the students also have access to a web-site that will allow them to access their reading and math textbooks on-line, take their reading tests online and have them scored immediately, and let them play games to review reading and math skills that we teach in the classroom.  The website is called Think Central and is located at: https://www-k6.thinkcentral.com/ePC/start.do   If you forget the site you can always search "Think Central Log-in".  Each student has a log-in user name and password that I have placed on a label in their reading folder.  I have taught the students how to take their comprehension and vocabulary tests on this site and they will take lesson 3 tests on the computer on Friday, Sept. 2nd.  You can even have them log-in at home to check their scores!  They tests are only available during school hours so the tests can not be taken at home.  If your child is ever absent on a testing day, please do not have them take the test at home.  All tests must be taken at school.  Please be patient with us as we all learn a new way to take tests at school.
