I will check planners before students leave each day. \u00a0I ask you to look at and sign your child\u2019s planner every day too. Feel free to write notes in the planner if you have questions. You may also email me any time! <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I will encourage you and your child to log onto the classroom blog and Class Dojo. I will have students begin logging on in class and learning how to navigate the sites so they can show you at home. \u00a0We will be using google classroom and drive, both are an application that can be used anywhere in the world on any device. It will be helpful to dowload the app on your device and then have your student\u2019s school gmail account to get it working from home. On the app you will have information on assignments and classroom news. Students can even get copies of assignments and see the daily planner snapshot!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Homework<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Please have your child read for 40 minutes and practice math facts using flashcards for 15 minutes every evening. Your child will sometimes have homework outside of reading and math facts. Please stress the importance of completing homework assignments neatly, carefully, and turning them when they are due. \u00a0Again, look for an H\/W in the planner. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Snack<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 It is essential to keep your child alert and motivated throughout the school day. Students will be encouraged to have a healthy snack (fruit, vegetables, crackers, cheese, dry cereal, etc.) \u00a0The opportunity to eat snack will be given while we are still learning and working so there is no time to stop to wash, peel, or prepare snacks. \u00a0Please DO NOT send cookies, cupcakes, fruit snacks, or fruit drinks. \u00a0Your child may bring a refillable water bottle to school each day fill with water only. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>\f<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>\u2192 Please see the <\/b><b>orange <a href=\"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/mrsbrady\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1476\/2017\/09\/Week-at-a-Glance-for-students-Google-Docs.pdf\">Week at a Glance for students &#8211; Google Docs<\/a><\/b><b>\u00a0that is in your child\u2019s binder.
