should be in the classroom and ready to learn by 7:45 a.m. 
Children arriving after this time will be counted tardy.

What are Tuesday Folders?

Your child will bring home a red folder every Tuesday. This 
folder will contain work from the previous week along with 
various communications from the school. Please sign the folder 
and send it back the next day. There may be occasions that other 
information will be sent through your child’s homwork folder.

When does my child have homework?

*Students are expected to read for 20 minutes each night.  When 
Guided Reading groups start, they are expected to read their 
assigned book and do any response.  The books read are to be 
recoreded in the booklog box in the homework folder.
*Students will generally have Math homework sent Mon. - Thurs. in 
their blue homework folder to help reinforce what we do in the 
classroom. These assignments are also designed to help involve 
parents, so feel free to help your child if she/he needs it. 
Please initial each day to show that your child has shown you 
their assignment sheet.
*There is no formal word work homework, but many students need to 
practice the words at home as well as in school.  There is a link 
to Spelling City on my Links page.  This is a fun way to 
practice.
