Important Shut Down Information

Posted on March 13, 2020March 13, 2020 by Zahra Abadi

Dear First Grade Families,

The first grade team is preparing work packets for students to complete during their time off. Please try to be at Maples School between 10:30-11:45 to pick up your child’s packet and any other information you may need. We are in the hallway in front of the office to help you out should you need assistance.

Students will also be expected to complete 30 mins of Reading Eggs and 30 mins of Zearn daily. Thank you for your understanding and support. If you have any questions please let us know.

We will also post each week the writing that we do. The student’s have been doing these since the beginning of the year so they will know what to do. Please have them write in their notebook that they have in their reading bag.

Please also make sure that they are reading from their reading bag for 20 minutes each day.

You can check back here for new information or on DOJO. We will check DOJO a couple of times a day should you have any questions.

Brag Tags

Posted on October 17, 2018 by Julie Spence

This year at Maples the students will be able to earn brag tags throughout the school year.

Here is some information to explain what brag tags are and how your child can earn them.

Brag tags are incentive tags that your child can earn for positive behavior and choices that he/she makes during the school day. The tags are placed on a necklace that is kept at school and brought home at the end of the school year. Brag tags are not meant to take home but can be looked at if you come into school to visit. We will also have them available when you come in for parent/teacher conferences.

Brag tags are earned when the teacher notices a choice or behavior that is done by a student that exceeds expectations. Brag tags can be earned for many things. Some of these may include: helping others, walking quietly in the hallway, good listening, being a buddy, following directions, etc.

Positive reinforcement is one method that we will use this year to encourage the positive choices and hard work.

If you have any questions, please let us know!
