Class Policies

Classroom Expectations

All students should be prepared for class each day with their expected materials.

Homework

Homework will be written on the whiteboard each day for the students to copy in their agendas. I will give the students time to copy down their homework, however It is their responsibility to copy it down and complete it daily!
I will not assign homework on Friday unless it is something that should have been completed for classwork during the week.
Homework should take students around 20 minutes each night!
Homework is graded by completeness, not by correctness! All work must be shown to receive full credit.

Absentee Work

When your child is absent from class, his/her work will be placed in a folder for him/her to pick up upon his/her return to class. They must remember to pick this work up themselves! Makeup work to be completed and handed in within two days. Any incomplete work will receive a 0 grade.

Communication

Please do not hesitate to email or call me with any concerns! (Email is usually the best way to contact me!) Parent-teacher communication is very important to a child's success in school. I want to see all of my students become lifelong learners and successful problem solvers, but most importantly, good people!

Behavior

Positive attitudes and behaviors are a key to success in the classroom! Positive behaviors will be reinforced individually, and by the whole class.
Negative behavior will first receive a verbal warning, followed by a parent email/ call home, lunch detention, or sent to the main office if behavior continues.
