**I communicate A LOT throughout the year with information and pictures or even a fun announcement!
Planners: Your sweetie will have a planner this year. It is their responsibility to bring it daily. In their planner we will be recording our spelling words, homework, any big announcements, and I will write notes home (along with an email). It's a great tool for communication, and teaching responsibility. Papers being sent home will go in the Take Home Folder (listed below).
Take Home Folders will go home & be returned the next day IF there is something to be sent home, otherwise information is sent via the planner or email.
Grades:
In 2nd grade we have assessments that get graded on the GCS grading scale.
We have assessments in every subject, and these grades count towards the Final Report Card Grade. 😁
Spelling tests will be weekly along with Unit Reading tests/quizzes, Math tests/quizzes, Social Studies, Science, and Language Arts. If you have any questions please reach out for more information.
Three times a year we take the Mastery Connect (standardized test) Assessment too! We work weekly on the 'questioning/wording' of what is seen on these tests. This does NOT count as a grade on the report card.
Behavior:
Behavior will be done daily, IF there is an issue parents will be notified immediately, or a note in the planner/email will be sent home at the end of the day depending on the severity of the issue. Throughout the day if students are caught being on task, using kindness/manners/respect, being helpful, or being an overall great citizen of our classroom community, they may earn a sticker for their chart (displayed in class) or a piece of candy.
Behavior Chart:
Once the chart is full they may chose a 'ticket'-which consists of fun things:
**borrow the teacher's chair for the day
**homework pass that night
**stinky feet (shoes off during class)
**show & tell
**fuzzy friend (bring a small stuffed animal from home to sit at their desk), fun things like this.
Homework:
Homework will be posted on the newsletter, along with any announcements in the planner. Homework will differ each week, and may be a packet or 1 sheet of paper (in the Take Home Folder).
Students may bring books from home to read silently in class to keep in their book boxes for ELA center time. Please make sure books are appropriate for school.
Chaperones MUST be a level 2 to go on ANY field trips this year. We plan to have 3 field trips this year.
