Score is based on Delaware Writing rubric. Anchors are used to help guide coring. A score of 3 is considered standard. This is a class goal to improve writing. • DIBELS- measures how fluently your child reads. Children are given a passage and are given one minute to read. Words correct per minute is your child’s score. The goal is to be over 100 words per minute. If your child scored below 65 wpm, we have identified that they need immediate attention and help with reading. • Placement Test- How well did your child do on a test intended for beginning year fourth graders. Below 79% in total score identifies an area of weakness in your child’s ability to comprehend

  9. FLUENCY • Repeated Reading • Practice reading the same passage over and over • Practice reading to parents or siblings • Paired Reading • Child and parent read book aloud together • Parent’s reading slightly leads or follows, depending on child’s need and desire • Choral Reading • Parent and child read text together • Child selects book and assigns parts with parent • Fluency is the ability to read with appropriate rate, accuracy, phrasing, • expression, and comprehension. • Students who are fluent readers are better • able to devote their attention to comprehending text. Please include fluency practice as part of your child’s nightly homework. The passage will be sent home on Monday. Each evening have your child do a one minute timed reading. Then record the number of words per minute they read on the included graph. They should read the passage Monday through Thursday and it should be sent back on Friday with your signature. Together we can help your child be a better reader.

The hardest part of raising a child is teaching them to ride bicycles.  A shaky child on a bicycle for the first time needs both support and freedom.  The realization that this is what the child will always need can hit hard.  ~Sloan Wilson Fourth grade is like riding the bicycle. Your children will need to become independent learners and they still need the support of all of us to make them be able to eventually yell: “No Handlebars!!”
