Also, please check the folder each night for important notes, daily work, etc. Also, if you need to send me a note just put it in your child’s folder. I have them check their folders every morning to see if there is anything I need to see. • Homework—we will send home information about homework soon.

  4. Things to help your child be successful in school---cont. • Behavior cards---Behavior cards are filled out and sent home every day. Please go over the card with your child and discuss his/her behavior for that day. Please initial them daily and send them back to school. • Report cards---Your child will get a progress report at the halfway point of each six weeks grading period. Report cards will also be sent home at the end of each six weeks. • Grades for report cards and behavior cards are as follows: • S=Satisfactory • P=Progressing • N=Not Progressing • There will be an incentive at the end of each 6 weeks for good behavior.

  5. Things you can do at home to help your child • Please keep an extra pair of clothes including socks and underwear in your child’s backpack. • Read to your child every night and/or have him/her read to you. • Have a special place set aside for homework with supplies they may need. • Take some time to go over and explain their homework to them. • Allow them to do hands-on activities like sorting silverware, counting and matching socks, etc. • Make sure they get plenty of rest and eat a good breakfast. • Review their school work daily.
