What if I need to change how my child is going home today?
Every student has a "regular" way to go home every day. A note from home isrequired to make any changes to that procedure. The only exception to thewritten note is if a parent calls the front office and asks that their childgo to ASP. A parent may also drop off a note at the front office. The frontoffice calls the classroom at 2:00 p.m. to inform the students and teacher ofany changes. Back to Top

My child says there's no homework today, but I want to use this opportunity to help my child. What can I do?
1) Talk to them about the book they're reading. Ask them to retell the storyin their own words and tell you what they like or don't like about it. Encourage them to dig for details.2) Play a math facts game. Fourth grade math assumes a knowledge of basicmultiplication facts. Students who are automatic with their facts tend to havean easier time with 4th grade computation. Example: Multiplication War: Shuffle a deck of cards (face-cards removed and Aces = 1). Pass all the cardsout to two players. Keep your cards in a stack face down and the two playersturn over the top card of their stack at the same time. The first person tostate the answer to the multiplication fact made by the two cards wins thepair and adds them to their stack. Play continues in this manner until allcards belong to one person or time is called and the player with the mostcards wins. In the case of a tie, play the next two cards on top of the cardsthat tied.Back to Top
