It has come to my attention that many children are not filling out their student planners. The planner is up all day for them to copy into their own planner. It is the students’ responsibilities to fill in their own planners. Please check your child’s planner every night. Parents should be signing planners on a daily basis. If your child has not filled anything in, they did not follow directions in class. If nothing has been filled in by the student and a parent still signs the planner, I will not stamp it the next day. Many children are not filling in the correct information and are not doing their homework, or are doing incorrect homework.
The students are capable of filling in their own planners by copying from the board and listening to directions in class. I know this is a hard lesson to learn, but the children must become more responsible and attentive listeners.

Also, students should be reading 15-20 minutes EVERY night and have a parent sign their reading log. Several students have not been filling in their reading logs. If this continues, I will have to contact those families to talk about expectations as a 2nd grader.

It is important to help the children to become responsible learners both at school and at home. Thank you to all of the parents for keeping up with your child to make sure they are responsible students.
