Hi All!
We had a short week! Yesterday, John Garrido came to the school and spoke about his Rescue Foundation. What a wonderful organization. Students got to meet Sargent Rubble, one of their rescue success stories. Today was our Thanksgiving Mass and Feast. Yummmy! Next week will be a full week, as we celebrate Advent, and amp up for Christmas and all of the festivities in store. Have a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving!
HOMEWORK– As part of our routine, students write down the homework assignments that are posted on the board at the beginning of the day, the very first thing they do. At times, they may need to change it throughout the day, but the very first thing they are suppose to do is fill in their planner. From now on, I will be checking the planners sporadically. It is expected that you student fill in his or her planner accurately and daily. Please check at home if this is indeed happening, and if not, let me know. Every Monday, two iXL assignments in math, fourth grade level, and two iXL assignments in language arts, fourth grade level, are assigned and are due the following Monday. Please note that because the students have a week to complete their assignments that late assignments will not be accepted. I-Ready homework is assigned on Monday, as well. Students are to complete and pass two lessons in math, and two lessons in reading every week by Friday. They are unable to make it up the next week. Assignments for that week will not be credited the following week. Math workbook pages are to be completed and in school the next day. Late work will not be accepted. Reading Logs are to be handed on Mondays and due the following Monday. Math Fact Fluency Logs will also be handed out on Mondays, and due the following Monday. If a student is missing homework, a missing homework slip goes home. Please sign this slip and return it back the next day. Test corrections are allowed for half credit. They are to be done and handed in the next day. They will not be accepted after that. All tests are to be signed and returned the next day. Usually, they will have a stamp on them.
Uniforms
As a reminder, please make sure your student is adhering to the uniform policy of the school.
Dress for Recess!
We go out in very cold weather, as low as 20 degrees. While it is warm now, it will not remain. Please make sure your student is warmly dressed for outdoor play. Dress them in layers, with hat, gloves and scarves, if necessary. Thank you.
