Welcome Back

Welcome Back!


     We have had a wonderful day today, and I am excited to get the second half of the year going! I wanted to let everyone know that report cards will be going home on Friday. There are also a few minor changes that I want everyone to be aware of.
     First, we will no longer be completing DLR. I will be incorporating these skills into our Morning Message and our daily writing assignments. In place of DLR, morning math will now become homework. I will hand this out every Monday, and students are expected to complete one page each evening, to go over in class the next day. If students are struggling, have a question, or would like some additional time or assistance, I will be available Tuesday through Friday at 8:00 a.m. for study hall/tutoring.
     Second, we have chosen to abandon our assignment books in favor of Brain Books. This type of journal will be much more informative for both you and your child. Under the parent link you will find a note which will explain the benefits and expectations.

Please let me know if you have any questions! Thank you for your support and I am looking forward to a great rest of the year!
