"Organization is the key to success."
Planners
- Students should bring planner and red take home folder to/from school each day. Please help/encourage your child to remove any "Leave at Home" items from the folder each day. Please also do regular backpack checks to make sure there are not unnecessary items in the backpack.
- Parents should sign the planner daily. This will help instill the importance of the planner in later grades. Consistency and training is essential for organizational success. "cw" indications classwork that is missing.
- If any homework is missing/late, it will be noted in the planner, so please review regularly.
- Students will write missed spelling words in the planner so they know what words to study. Be creative with practice of spelling words.
- It is impossible for me to read each planner every day, so if there is a note to be read, have your child let me know.
Red Take-Home Folder
Please note: Spelling/vocab list, and Literature Circle Schedule should be stored in the outside pocket of Red Folder at all times.
- Math Packets/Homework should stay in the "Return to School" Pocket until it has been reviewed and recorded. You will see a red mark at the top indicating that I have recorded it.
