In our classroom, my expectations are high for all students. Each one of us has different gifts; we will foster and nurture those gifts all year long! I expect you to give me your best work. I know we can achieve great things if we work together. To be able to do this, our classroom expectations are straight forward.
Be respectful, especially when someone else is speaking - teacher or classmate. We learn when we listen.
Be responsible - being prepared for class means you have materials with you and you're ready to learn!
Be safe - follow school rules in all building areas. The consequences, whether positive or negative, are a result of the choices you have made.
Be KIND- always! Follow the "golden rule" and treat others how you wish to be treated.
We are human. We all make mistakes. It is how we handle our mistakes afterwards that matters most!
Grading is standards-based. Students will receive standards-based report cards three times a year after each trimester.
Check your child's assignment book each day. Homework is to be copied each morning as part of our morning routine.
There may be times when students are asked to practice a skill at home. Purposes of this type of activity/homework include the extension and reinforcement of learning and the development of personal responsibilities and independent thinking. Though homework is a valuable learning activity and is reviewed in class, homework at the elementary level is not a graded activity. Homework also helps to strengthen the home/school connection.
Math: Forty-five (45) iReady minutes (including 1 PASSED lesson) AND 3 Reflex green lights OR Frax missions EVERY week. Additionally, ONE Problem of the Day will be assigned Monday through Thursday.
Science: Assignments that are not finished in class could be assigned as homework.
