NATHA HOWELL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL | SPRING 2019 FEBRUARY NEWSLETTER A Letter from the Principal , Monica Granados Dear Families? Welcome to our Fabulous February wildcat newsletter! Even though this is a short month, it's quite busy with student events and testing. With this being said, we look forward to a positive spring semester filled with purpose. We also celebrate African American History Month with art projects and cultural awareness learning. As we move forward please note that all students will engage in testing to measure progress. Lower grade teachers will monitor reading levels while upper grade teachers will measure both reading and math. It's very important that all students get a daily good nights rest and arrive to school by 7:50 am. In order to continue this pathway with progress and accountability, it's especially paramount to assure your child completes assignments, reads nightly for a minimum of twenty minutes and submits work on time to their teachers. Completing assignments includes success criteria by each student that will demonstrate taught strategies- showing their work, proper headings, dates, neatness, along with complete sentences and content vocabulary applied. Don't forget to check their behavior charts and academic planners too! Last but not least, we want to close with celebrations of AR dot colors. Last month our campus observed an overall increase in reading grade level goals and or advanced levels than any other month combined. Thanks to all our parent volunteers and wildcat scholars to placing reading first. If you would like to know your child's dot color, see our AR chart attached.

NEWSLETTERA Letter from the Principal, Monica Granados
Dear Fam ilies?
Welcome to our Fabulous February wildcat newsletter! Even
though this is a short month, it 's quite busy with student events
and testing. With this being said, we look forward to a positive
spring semester filled with purpose. We also celebrate African
American History Month with art projects and cultural
awareness learning.
As we move forward please note that all students will engage in
testing to measure progress. Lower grade teachers will monitor
reading levels while upper grade teachers will measure both
reading and math. It 's very important that all students get a daily
good nights rest and arrive to school by 7:50 am.
In order to continue this pathway with progress and
accountability, it 's especially paramount to assure your child
completes assignments, reads nightly for a minimum of twenty
minutes and submits work on time to their teachers. Completing
assignments includes success criteria by each student that will
demonstrate taught strategies- showing their work, proper
headings, dates, neatness, along with complete sentences and
content vocabulary applied. Don't forget to check their behavior
charts and academic planners too!
Last but not least, we want to close with celebrations of AR dot
colors. Last month our campus observed an overall increase in
reading grade level goals and or advanced levels than any other
month combined. Thanks to all our parent volunteers and
wildcat scholars to placing reading first. If you would like to
know your child's dot color, see our AR chart attached.

Carta de la Directora, Monica Granados
Est im adas fam il ias?
¡Bienvenido a nuestro fabuloso boletín de wildcat de febrero! Aunque este es un mes corto, está bastante ocupado con los eventos y las pruebas de los estudiantes. Con esto dicho, esperamos un semestre de primavera positivo y lleno de propósito. También celebramos el Mes de la historia afroamericana con proyectos de arte y aprendizaje de conciencia cultural. A medida que avancemos, tenga en cuenta que todos los estudiantes participarán en las pruebas para medir el progreso. Los maestros de los grados inferiores supervisarán los niveles de lectura, mientras que los maestros de los grados superiores medirán tanto la lectura como las matemáticas. Es muy importante que todos los estudiantes tengan un buen descanso diario y lleguen a la escuela a las 7:50 am. Para continuar este camino con el progreso y la responsabilidad, es especialmente importante asegurarse de que su hijo complete las tareas, lea todas las noches durante un mínimo de veinte minutos y envíe el trabajo a tiempo a sus maestros. Completar las tareas incluye los criterios de éxito de cada estudiante que demostrarán las estrategias enseñadas, mostrando su trabajo, los títulos adecuados, las fechas, la limpieza, junto con las oraciones completas y el vocabulario de contenido aplicado. ¡No olvides revisar sus tablas de comportamiento y planificadores académicos también! Por último, pero no menos importante, queremos cerrar con las celebraciones de los colores de puntos AR. El mes pasado, nuestro plantel observó un aumento general en las metas de lectura y en los niveles avanzados que en cualquier otro mes combinado. Gracias a todos nuestros padres voluntarios y académicos salvajes por colocar primero la lectura. Si desea saber el color de puntos de su hijo, consulte nuestra tabla de AR adjunta.
