Welcome! Thank you for taking time to come visit the website. You are an important part of your child’s success in school. Thank you, in advance, for all the time you have and will be investing to help your child with his or her school work. Here is a quick overview of how we can have a successful year
These are used for recording daily assignments & nightly homework.
Parents & teachers can write notes to each other.
I may also communicate discipline comments, missing assignments, or supplies needed.
Notes & Concerns:
I will inform you as needed of specific concerns or triumphs that your child is experiencing at school. Please inform me about any concerns, questions, or comments that you feel may affect your child’s classroom performance. You may email me or put stick notes directly on a homework or classroom assignment.
B. Newsletter: I will send home a newsletter periodically to keep you informed of what has been and will be covered in our classroom. I normally send it by email and post it on the website in this section.

Grading:
I take a great deal of time to grade, giving detail to accuracy and praising. However, I may make mistakes on occasion.
Please write any questions or comments directly on any assignment that you need to during the year.
Graded together is noted with a capital T with a circle around it. (SK) will be written next to a problem that your child skips. Please have your child correct and return any papers that need to be fixed.
