PTA Popsicle sale – Tomorrow 9/8 after school $.50 each.
Homework – Next week we will start homework. Students will have:
Spelling Homework due Wednesday
Reading Log due Thursday – I will not send home book bags this year. If you do not have books at home, you may use our online reading resources, the library or let me know your child may borrow classroom books.
Classwork – We try to provide ample time to complete classwork in school. However, sometime student will not have enough time to finish in class and it will need to be completed at home. There will also be some at home projects that we do throughout the year. If your family has any special circumstances that prevent your child from completing the homework please send me a note or email to let me know.
Other homework -Your child should be reading 10-20 minutes each night, and practicing multiplication/division math facts (they should already have addition and subtraction facts memorized to 20). Multiplication/division math facts should be memorized before the end of 3rd grade. They must practice this at home to accomplish this. It is also helpful for your child to keep a journal at home and write 5-10 minutes a day about a topic of their choice.
Homework should take 30-60 minutes a day. If it is taking longer than this please speak to me about ways that we can make it shorter for your child.
Parent Connect – Is a way to keep track of your students on going progress and keep track of missing work. If you have not already done so please get your password from the office and sign up on my blog. I will try to have all grades in the computer by Thursday night.
Extra recess – If students complete all their assignment for the week by Friday afternoon they will receive extra recess. Please help your student keep track of their daily assignments by watching Parent Connect.
Friday helpers – I need a volunteer to help with spelling tests and copying on Fridays (8:45-9:45) and another volunteer to help with extra recess on Fridays (2:55-3:25).
Papers to volunteer or do a field trip – Please fill out your paperwork to chaperone or volunteer in the classroom. You must also bring in a copy of your driver’s license. Here is link to the papers: https://iblog.dearbornschools.org/keebler/field-trip-forms/
Paper turned in by Monday – Please fill out the white “Please Help Me to Get to Know your child” and return it by Monday, some didn’t fill out the back, please complete it even if I had your child last year. Thanks!
Sign up for blog and Dojo – VERY IMPORTANT – make sure that you sign up for both. You will be missing information if you do not. If you need help please email me at keeblek@dearbornschools.org.
Friday Sharing – Everyone who wants, may bring sharing tomorrow. We will try Friday sharing and I may need to change days or add restrictions if it takes too long for everyone to share.
