Dear 4A parents,
I hope you’ve had a pleasant week. I have enjoyed your children;
they are such a blessing to me!
There are a few important dates coming up:
- There isn’t school on Monday, Sept. 5th in honor of Labor Day.
- There will be a Spalding information night on Monday, September 12, at 6:00 in the MPR. Mrs. Clouse will be leading it.
- There will be a Singapore Math information night on Thursday, September 22, at 6:00 in the MPR and Ms. Infantolino will be leading it.
Quizzes this week: Monday – mountains, Tuesday
– math (multiples and factors), Thursday
– Pollyanna (Chapters 1-15), Friday –
1st Geology quiz and Spalding
I know this sounds like a lot. The halfway mark is almost
here and we are in full swing with our academics. The students will receive
study guides and we will go over them in class. It is important that they fill
out the guides on their own (using their notes) so they are aware of what they
do and do not know.
Please make sure you are checking agendas each night. I will
put in missing assignments for you to check. It is important to turn in all
assignments even if they are late. A “1” is better than a “0”.
Your child has been and will continue to get returned
assignments that have been graded (should be in their take-home folder), please
look these over and discuss what, if anything, needs to be corrected. Mrs. Ryan
and I put comments on papers we have graded, please have your child learn from
them and make sure any questions for understanding and/or clarification get
asked.
If your child gets a
“C” or below on anything, I would like them to correct it for understanding and
turn it back in the next day (asking any questions in the process). When this
is completed they can gain back some points.
Thank You!
