Don't forget to read the weekly elementary e-notes sent too from the elementary office via e-mail.
//**Please check the Calendar (look on the left of this page for the Calendar button) for important information this month!**//

=Room Parents:=

Ola D. (Aurelia's mom) and Ewa P. (Anna's mom).

- They will be in contact with you via e-mail about certain events in the classroom or in the school that would greatly need parent support. Thank you for all your help, Moms and Dads.

=Visiting Parents:=

- Please come visit (as I sincerely mentioned at the Open House). Look over our daily schedule and come at a time that interests you or best suits your time schedule. If you are interested in reading aloud to the class - you select a picture book or I can pick if needed - that is definitely possible too. Just send me an e-mail so I can have a desk prepared for you...our new 4th grader! Your child will love it.

=   Homework:  = It has always been my goal as a teacher to have my students work hard in school, and then go home with a practical amount of homework. After school should be a time for extra-curricular activities and family.

It is best if you do not help your child with every single part, every single question on homework. The homework is meant to be review so if your child does not understand the homework then this a good opportunity for me to reteach the following day or to meet with the student one-on-one the next day.


 * Please let me know if homework takes longer than 45 minutes a night.**

Reading homework is required every night and will often involve some sort of short reading activity, like a reading response in a journal (called write your thinking) or writing post-it notes.

Math problem-solving work is Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Spelling/vocabulary practice is every Monday through Thursday.

Homework is rare on weekends. Please **sign** **the homework sheet each day.** =Birthdays:=

- This special day is important and fun to celebrate. If you would like to send in a treat on a birthday, that would be wonderful. Send me an e-mail, so I can let you know the best time to **bring the treat**.
