Please note: During the school day all classroom phones go straight to voicemail, so it is easier to get in touch with me through Seesaw or by email. If you do call and leave a message, I will call you back within 24 hours of your voicemail. If an emergency arises and you need to speak with someone immediately, please contact the front office.

Homework packets come home weekly and include spelling and vocabulary practice. These are not required, but when they are returned completed they earn each student 10 extra points on their weekly spelling/vocabulary test.
As unit tests approach, I will send home a study guide the week before that students can work on. Again if these are returned signed and complete then students will earn 10 extra points on their unit test.
Makeup work is only required for graded assignments and will be given to students to work on upon their return to school. Students work on makeup work during morning work time, or during free moments in the day.
Any students who wish to retake a test or quiz may do so one time. Please reach out if you would like your child to retake a test or quiz due to scoring below 80%.
For any further questions about homework or homework policies, please refer to this year's student handbook. (attached below)
I use a level system to help students learn to manage their behavior in class. Each week, students will bring home a behavior calendar to be signed and sent back to school for the next week. (we use the same calendar for the whole month!)
Students can earn the rewards or consequences below for following established class rules.
Each week's newsletter can be found on our class Seesaw!
