Week of October 27 - 31
This week was very hectic because we were locked
out of our classroom for mold treatment to the portables.
Our
portable was reported to have only mild traces of mold, but to be on
the safe side, the classroom was treated for mold, along with most
of the other portables.
We continued to have classes in
various classrooms around the building. Thanks to all the
teachers who
allowed
the fourth grade classes to share their rooms when their classes were at special
areas.
A special thanks to Mr.Orlando, Ms. Scroggins, Ms. Farrar, Mrs. Gibson, Mrs. Supernant, Mrs. Ellis,Mrs. Newman,
and Coach Ogburn for sharing their classrooms with us.
The students were great sports and were amazingly
cooperative while in this difficult situation. They are to be
comended!

I ordinarily do not assign homework! All subjects have work that is assigned in class and then plenty of time is allowed to complete the assignments. If a child does not get the assignment finished in class, it then becomes homework and needs to be completed at home and returned the next day. If it is not completed then your child will have to miss recess the following day to complete it. At times additional assignments and special projects are assigned.
Each day your child will bring home an assignment book that tells you about any homework your child has for that day. Please check this book each night and sign it letting me know that you have seen it and discussed any assignments with your child. If you have any questions or comments, please write them in the assignment book - I will be checking for your signature each morning. This is very helpful in keeping parents informed about what is going on in class on a daily basis. It is also instrumental for students to keep them organized. Organization is a very important skill for your child to acquire for furture success in their ongoing education.
* Math Facts must be learned! It is an excellent idea to practice these regularly.

Reading for 20 minutes every night is expected! It is a proven
fact that the child that reads is more successful. Click here
for more information on literacy. Why can't I skip my 20 minutes of reading tonight?
