What can I do to help my child?

Check your child's agenda book each night to see if there is a 
homework assignment.  Review homework when it is completed.  Help 
your child study for tests and quizzes by using the flashcards, 
notes, and worksheets in his or her 3-ring binder.  The dates for 
the quizzes and tests will be in the agenda book and in the 
homework section of teacher web.

Is there going to be alot of homework?

I do not give very much homework as the social studies teacher, 
but when I do I expect it to be done promptly. If an assignment 
is not completed or turned in, the student will stay inside 
during recess to complete the work. If it becomes a habit I will 
assign silent lunch and a call home.


You will receive homework in math and reading everyday.

What is Race to the Governor's House?

A Compilation of Questions and Answers related to Virginia's 
History. A great study tool for the SOLs. Each student will 
receive a copy of all nine races as we go through the 
information. We will also go against the other social studies 
classes in a game to see who knows their stuff.
