Homework:

Your child will receive a reading log on Monday.  Use the log to record the books your child reads each night.  Children are expected to read for at least 15 minutes each night.  Completed logs are turned in on Friday morning. However, your child must bring the log to school each morning to record the daily homework assignment.  Fast Start is also due on Friday.  Read the poem with your child and complete at least 8 activities by the end of the week. Please be sure to sign the log each evening.  I do not give a lot of homework, so I do expect your child to fulfill the nightly reading assignment. 

Classroom:

Schedule:

Monday: Art

Tuesday: Music

Wednesday: Gym

Thursday: Art

Friday: Music

I expect each child to come to school every day ready to learn and do his or her best work.    Children will be encouraged to work hard, treat others kindly, complete homework, and participate in classroom activities.

Students will focus on literacy skills, science, and social studies.  Literacy components include Reader's Workshop, Writer's Workshop, word study, shared reading, and interactive writing.  Math will primarily be taught by Mrs. Silva.  Do visit her website to check for her expectations and routines.

Snacks:

I encourage you to send your child to school with a healthy snack.  This is not a new school policy.  Eating a healthy snack does make a difference in your child's attention and mood!
