Newsletters
Newsletters will be sent weekly by email with important class news and information about test dates. Please make sure I have current email addresses for both mom and dad, and students are encouraged to provide theirs as well.
Planners
Please check your child's planner daily and initial in the appropriate area.
Progress Reports
I update RDS daily. For those with internet access, this is the best way to monitor your child’s progress. If you need information to access the site, please send a note or email and I will get the information you need. If you do not have internet access, please send a note and I will send printed progress reports home at least twice a quarter.
Homework
Homework will be assigned most days Monday-Thursday.
Assigned work is due the next class meeting.
The work should not exceed 40 minutes to complete.
Students who are absent are expected to make up any and all assigned work.
The work should be completed by the student. If you find that your child often requires your help, please contact me at school so we can discuss this together.
Please provide a work area for your child. It might be helpful to stock a shoe box with pencils, scissors, etc. and then place the box in a location where the homework will be completed.
If your child says he/she has no homework to complete, suggest that he or she read a book or write for 30 minutes. It builds good habits!
