COMMUNICATION
COMMUNICATION
For day to day communication, direct messaging through Parent Square is the best avenue for reaching me. If for some reason you need it, my email is heacockm@unionsd.org. I also appreciate face to face conversations, so families are encouraged to stop by Portable A (near Rm. 9) before or after school. I will be sending out weekly messages every Thursday afternoon at 3pm, as well as occasionally posting signups, pictures, and reminders.

Homework
Homework
The Eureka Squared math homework workbook is called Apply, and it will be sent home with your child in advance of the beginning of each module. Check out this website to learn more about the program. There are six modules covered in fourth grade. Your child will write down their math homework pages every night in their Plan Book to help them stay organized. I will also inform families in my Thursday newsletter which lessons will be covered each day the following week.
On a daily basis, your child will be assigned reading for at least 20 minutes.
Sometimes your child may need to complete unfinished work at home.
On rare occasions, your child may be encouraged to work on projects at home.
I also recommend the online programs Happy Numbers, Lexia, and Quill for extra math and reading/grammar practice at home.

CELEBRATING BIRTHDAYS
Your child's birthday will be acknowledged in class and your child will receive a birthday bracelet. Our district has asked that families NOT bring in birthday treats/food due to the increase in food allergies and sensitivities. Goodie bags are acceptable, but not necessary.
Absences
Absences
Please call the office at the 24 Hr Attendance line: (408) 264-8837 and email me at heacockm@unionsd.org when your child will be absent.
