Wonders

As you may know, we have a new reading curriculum this year in Leon County. We will be using the Wonders reading curriculum. It is set up differently from our previous reading curriculum, Imagine It. Students will focus on one specific comprehension skill and vocabulary strategy each week. They will read multiple stories that all reinforce the skills we are working on for that week. Students will then be assessed on their mastery of those skills by reading a new story and answering comprehension and vocabulary questions based on the story. The first 2 weeks' tests will be taken as a class and not counted as a test grade to give students time and practice with the new style of testing. We will not be testing on Fridays, so make sure to check your student's planner for the days that the test will be given. 

Test dates will also be sent out using Remind 101. If you haven't signed up for Remind 101, just text @swes5 to (863) 232-5692.

Each student has a login and password that will allow them to access the kid friendly Wonders website where they can get their vocabulary words for the week, complete practice assignments, and even play games practicing their weekly skills. Students' usernames are LCSB_ and their 9 digit student number they use for Success Maker. Their password is lcs12345. 

Example: 
Username: LCSB_123456789
Password: lcs12345
