This page is dedicated to letting you know how our class works!
Hours
School starts at 9:00 am.
Dismissal is at 3:45 Monday-Thursday and 1:30 on Fridays. Most of our students ride the bus, so we leave class 5 minutes early to load the buses in a safe and timely manner.
Please call the office, or email me, if you have an emergency that prevents you from being to school on time.
Breakfast and playground supervision are not available until 8:30 am.
Illness
If your child is sick, please keep him or her home from school until no longer contagious. Please email me when your child misses school, because I do worry.
If you know in advance your child must miss, please write in in the planner.
Homework
Spelling homework will be given on Mondays. Math is given M-Th and due the very next day and spelling is due on the short day when the students will have their test. Students are expected to work on homework every Monday through Thursday. Please finish all of the homework as often as possible. If your child has a meltdown and is only able to complete half, I understand. If you are unable to do homework one night, please complete it the next night. Our homework schedule is flexible, but it is best to stay on top of it and do one page per night. If your child has difficulty with any homework problem, please write a quick note in the planner.
Reading
Students are expected to read for 20 minutes every night. This includes students reading to parents and others, parents reading to students, reading on a Kindle or Nook, and listening to audio books and following along.
Planner
Please check your child's backpack each day for his or her planner. Any important notes and permission forms will be in the planners. Remind your child to do any assigned homework and to read. Students will not be able to participate in certain activities, such as field trips, without prior written parental permission. Send back any permission slips, homework, and any notes in the planner. You and I will both check the planner every day.
