On Sept. 6 PLC, we are going to gather baseline Spring data from our students to get to know them as readers to begin Conferring and Guided Reading Groups by Sept. 26.

1.  Review Spring F & P and MAP Data on the spreadsheet.  I will put it in your mailboxes.

2.  In the transition folders, review the last F & P test and form of strengths and areas for growth.

3.  Confer with your students during the first month to confirm the data and your students' strengths and needs.
