Book Orders Students will be given book orders approximately once a month. Please make sure to write your checks to the book company. They will have one week to return their order forms. Grading Scale A = 90-100 B = 80-89 C = 70-79 D = 60-69 F = 59 and below Late Work Your child’s work is very important. Their daily work shows their understanding of class objectives. Late work will be accepted for half credit. Your child will always be required to complete late work before or during recess.

Each day, your child will be given work to do in class to demonstrate their skills and learning. They will normally be given plenty of time to complete their skill work in class. Each evening, they should only have “practice homework” if they have used their time wisely during the day. The practice homework is required Monday through Thursday, and includes: **20 minutes of reading (out loud reading to an adult is best);

If a certain item needs to be replaced during the school year, I will try to let you know in advance.

Monday Folder Students will be given a Monday Folder to take home each first day of the week, that will contain all of their work from the previous week. I would encourage you to look over your child’s work so that you will be aware of where your child is in the learning process. There will be a place for you to sign on the front of the folder and your child will need to return that empty
