Homework this week

Hola,

Hope every one is keeping warm in this frigid weather! For this week's homework, students will receive a survey that they will have to complete. This survey is to help me understand their interests and how they think class is going thus far. It asks for their feedback on the two units we have completed and for suggestions for those units and future units. This will be their only homework. I will give them the homework tomorrow (Tuesday) as I am out sick today, but I still wanted to update you all!

Also, I have increased my hours for tutoring. I am still holding tutoring on Tuesdays from 3:45 to 4:20, but am now adding hours on Wednesdays. I will have two sessions (3:45 to 4:20 and 4:20 to 5:00). Students may stay one or both sessions. I will also send a letter home with this information. 

Third grade - I have sent home a permission slip for your students to participate in a study to help us build the curriculum. Please read the letter and sign and return at your earliest convenience. If you should have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact any of the people listed on the letter. Thank you in advance.

Have a great week!

Homework/TESTS

All students in grades 3-7 received a homework packet yesterday that will be due Friday, January 24th. The homework packet is larger than normal as it serves as a study guide for their upcoming unit exam.

Unit exams will be Monday and Tuesday of next week. Students should be studying (making flash cards is a great way to study vocabulary) and go over any grammatical concepts they learned and bring in any questions they have so that I can help prepare them to do well on their exam.

Thank you for all of your support!

Tarea and other news...

As a reminder, students received a homework packet on Friday. It is due this upcoming Friday.

Grades 3-5 will have a quiz on Friday.

Grades 6 and 7 will have a test on Friday.

I sent home letters in sealed envelopes to many students on Friday (and to some today if they were absent) with a grade update and reason for their grade. PLEASE sign and return to me as soon as you can. This is very important.

Don't forget you can always check grades online and to look at their weekly progress report and to email me if you'd like to discuss grades. I tried to contact as many parents as possible through email, phone calls and letters as I have over one hundred students and this can be difficult to do, but all students who have dropping grades should have received one of these methods of contact.

Thank you parents/guardians for all of your support!

Homework update

Hi all,

Hope you all stayed warm these past couple days!

I did not hand out homework on Monday because we ran out of paper and because of the two days off on Tuesday and Wednesday, I am going to give the students the homework for this week and add a page and make it due NEXT Friday (the 17th). I will give the students this homework tomorrow so they will have the weekend plus all next week to complete it. I am not sure what we are going to get through which is why I am waiting until tomorrow so I can see what page I can add for each grade.

Hope you all enjoy your weekend.
