Reading
Room Rules
|
Students walk quietly to and from the reading
room.
In the Reading room students sit in an assigned seat and
fold their hands to show they are ready to listen.
Students put pencils down and raise their hands during discussions.
Each student places an oblong name tag/behavior tag on the
table.
When I observe appropriate behavior (listening,
following directions, being polite to others, etc.) I put
a star on
their nametag.
When I observe a negative behavior, I cross
off a star (which can be earned back by appropriate behavior).
When the name tags are filled, they may be traded for
a prize.
After class, students must clean their area before they
can be excused.

What is
Title 1?
|
Title 1 is the largest federal assistance program for our nation’s schools.
The goal of Title 1 is a high-quality education for every child. The federal
government provides funding to states each year for Title 1. States send the
money to school districts based on the numbers of low-income families, but
students do not have to be from low-income families to receive help.
The local school district identifies eligible
schools and provides Title 1 resources.
Our school identifies students most in need of educational help. Goals are
set for student improvement, we measure progress made each year, and welcome
parent involvement.
To meet the student improvement goals, Title 1 offers smaller classes, additional
teachers and assistants, extra time for instruction, and a variety of teaching
methods and materials. Title 1 teachers and classroom teachers work closely
together to plan and coordinate our goals for each student.
If your child is receiving Title 1 assistance, we invite you to visit our classes
and ask questions. If you are not sure if your child is receiving Title 1 assistance,
please ask your child’s classroom teacher or the Title 1 teachers. |
