Welcome to Curriculum Night! 2018-2019
What do we teach? Beyond the reading, writing, and math, our goal is to teach your children how to be productive members of society. In order to do so, we must make our students confident, strong, and able to learn from their mistakes. We accomplish this through practice, hard work, and, occasionally, laughter. At Franklin, we also use PBIS, a discipline program, that emphasizes prevention instead of punishment.

Where do we begin? • Before we can teach your students that they can accomplish anything, we must first assess what they know. The next few slides cover where the students were assessed at the beginning of the year in reading and math.
ISTEEP MATH ASSESSMENT*Score Range: *0-2 Below Average *3-6 Average *7+ Above Average*End of the year goal: 11
ISTEEP READING ASSESSMENT*0-60 Below Average *61-108 Average *109+ Above Average*End of the year goal: 147 WPM
SPELLING ASSESSMENT*Goal is to be at grade level or above for spelling
What next? At Home : We continue to assess at least once a month to monitor all of our student’s progress. If a student isn’t achieving at grade level, we also have tutoring and other resources to help your child succeed. There are lots of things you can do at home to help your student succeed. Make sure your child has the time and place to complete their homework. Read together. Write letters to each other. Play math games. Play spelling games. In School :
