Dear Parents,
Welcome to the 2017/2018 school year! I am looking forward to a rewarding learning year getting to know and work with your fifth grade student. During the first weeks of school we will be spending time getting to know each other and learning classroom routines. It is important that we create a safe and healthy learning environment for all students so learning becomes easier to achieve.
I have out together a useful informational sheet to help you and your child become familiar with my expectations for the school year. Please take some time to read through the information.
HOMEWORK
Everyday your child will be bringing home a homework folder that includes a reading log. The homework that will be given is an extension of the learning that we taught in class that day. Reading is the key to your child’s success in all areas of learning, so I expect them to read seven days a week for thirty minutes. Parents are required to sign their child’s reading log daily. Reading logs will be checked daily. A student planner book will also be coming to help you keep track of your student’s work it must be signed daily
WATER BOTTLES
Students are encouraged to bring a water bottle to school daily. Research shows that keeping ourselves hydrated helps our brains stay nourished!
