• Homework:

    • Homework will be given every Monday night for the week. Weekly FUNDATIONS follow up, word study skill sheets and math practice sheets will be sent home.
    • I encourage parents to read nightly with their children for at least ten minutes and log the book read on your child's monthly reading log.
    • Practice your child's sight word ring every day.
    • Homework folders are due back every Friday with sight words and reading logs.
    • MONTHLY FAMILY projects will be sent home at the beginning of each month with special directions.

     

    Take Home Folders:

    • Students have take home folders that are to be taken home every night.  One side has notices that are to be left home, while the other side has papers that need to be filled out and returned to school.
    • Please be sure that you check these folders every night when your child comes home.
    • Feel free to put any notes for me in the “Return to School” side of the folder.

     

    Show and Tell:

    • Time has been allotted every Friday for students to bring in or talk about things that are special to them.  Not only is this an enjoyable time for the students, it also allows me to learn more about who they are outside of school .

     

    Pick-Up Procedures:

    • If your child is to go home with another student or be picked up by someone other than yourself, please send a note in writing to me in the morning so that I am made aware of the arrangements.

     

     

    Friday Readers:

    • Time has been allotted in the schedule every Friday for parents to come into the classroom to read.   It has proven to be an extremely enjoyable experience for both parents as well as students.

     

    Birthdays:

    • Birthdays may be celebrated by bringing in cupcakes or a special treat for the day.   As per school policy, notification must be sent in 2 days prior to the event. Please do not send invitations in to be distributed via the teacher unless every student in the class is invited.  I will be more than happy to provide you with a list of addresses if need be!
