New Inductees into the GENRE GOLD club!
Ho’omaika’i to the 5B FISH! haumåna who met their reading genre goals for trimester #1! Whoop Whoop to you! Way back in August, I shared w/the students that reading was important! That a goal for every trimester was to read from a variety of genres…at least 9 every trimester. The expectation was to also read ONE MILLION words this year as Papa ‘Elima students!
You could have heard a pin drop, jaws hung open in horror & disbelief, but I continued to share that it can be done! Attainable w/ho’omau (perseverance)…We had many conversations on growth mindset vs. fixed mindset & the benefits on college and career readiness & how reading impacts test scores too!
Grit, Hard Work, Ho’omau…& ALL SMILES!
Well…Trimester 1 ended & many students worked hard to accomplish their reading goals! Many were super close & have already discussed strategies to meet the reading goals for Trimester #2! Congrats again ka’u I’a! Job well done! Keep swimming strong, keep your eye on the target! Looking forward to inducting new members into the Genre Gold Club for trimester #2!
