6 Daily Folders and Behavior Logs
Students are responsible for bringing their daily folder and behavior log home each day. These serve as an important communication log between the teacher and parents. Parents should initial each day so that I know they have seen any notes and are aware of their child’s behavior for the day. There is a pencil pouch in each folder that can be used to store notes, money, etc.

7 ENGLISH LANUGAGE ARTS AND READING HOMEWORK
Spelling words will be given to your child at the beginning of each week. A sheet listing them will be located in your child’s take home folder. Students are responsible for studying and mastering these words by the end of the week for the spelling test (usually Friday). At times, a “menu of choices” will be sent home for the students to choose a way to write their spelling words and turn in at the end of the week. In addition to spelling, your child is also expected to read 15- 20 minutes each week night at home. BEGINNING IN OCTOBER, a reading log will be sent home with your child. He/she is expected to read AT LEAST 20 MINUTES EACH NIGHT, ending their week with 80 minutes read. This help builds stamina and fluency and helps prepare them for when they start reading their tests on their own in JANUARY. They can read their library books or any other materials at home as long as they are READING! 

8 Next semester, we will focus on subtraction facts.
MATH HOMEWORK The main focus for math homework this semester is to study and learn their addition math facts. Next semester, we will focus on subtraction facts. There is a MATH HOMEWORK MENU provided to help with fun ways and ideas to get your child to want to learn and practice their facts. Students will be expected to read their tests ON THEIR OWN BEGINNING IN JANUARY.

9 Make Up Work Graded work that is sent home with a grade below a 70 can be redone at home and sent back the next day for a maximum grade of 70. Please help your child correct any mistakes on their paper (IN PEN and do not erase original answers). Initial it at the top with the date so we know it has been checked and reviewed. Some make up assignments will be done with the teacher during RTI in small groups or one-on-one depending on the needs of the student.

10 Behavior System We use a clip chart in class to monitor behavior for each day. Everyone is able to move up or down depending on the choices they make. Pink- SUPER STUDENT (students are rewarded)  Purple-GREAT JOB Blue-GOOD CHOICES Green-READY TO LEARN (everyone starts here) Yellow-THINK ABOUT IT Orange-TEACHER’S CHOICE Red-PARENT CONTACT It is the STUDENT’S responsibility to check the chart at the end of the day and mark the color they are on in their behavior log. I will leave a note ONLY for any clips below green.

15 CHANGING THE WAY YOUR CHILD LEAVES SCHOOL
If you decide that your child is leaving school a DIFFERENT WAY than he/she normally leaves, A NOTE MUST BE PROVIDED letting us know the way home for the day. If a note is a not provided, your child will be sent home the REGULAR WAY that he/she normally goes home. We cannot take the word of your child as misunderstandings have happened in the past. A phone call to the front office letting the staff know will work as well.
