  5. Reading – We will focus the majority of the year working on comprehension. Here are comprehension strategies we will be practicing: • Making Connections • Visualizing • Asking Questions • Inferring • Determining Importance • Summarizing  Students will be taught and expected to produce deep thoughts about the books they read. Their reading grades will be based on their level of comprehension and how well they use the comprehension strategy.

  6. Please help your child pick just right books!

  7. These are ways you can help your child when they get stuck on a word.

  8. Your child will be responding to their reading using these prompts.

  9. This is an example of a great reading response.

  10. Writing –Skills we will focus on in the first half of the year: • Generating ideas, writing complete sentences, spelling, correct punctuation, capitalization, and grammar, sequencing ideas • Skills we will focus on in the second half of the year: Clear sequence and development of ideas, elaboration, organization, supporting main idea with details, spelling Phonics – You will see the spelling words we are working on in the class newsletter. Students need to have a concrete understanding of phonics and decoding (sounding out) strategies in order to develop their spelling, writing, and reading skills.

  11. Students will be learning and investigating a variety of science topics. Much of the work will be done in class and kept in science notebooks. Therefore, some of the science grades will not be sent home. Feel free to contact your teacher with any questions. Map skills, geography, citizenship, and historical figures are a few of the topics we will cover in social studies. When applicable, social studies will be incorporated into Language Arts.

  12. Students are expected to read at least 15 minutes a night and practice spelling.

  13. Behavior Chart – At the bottom of this chart are student codes of conduct. If your child breaks a code, they will receive a note in their binder. If your child receives a note about their behavior please discuss the note with your child and help them understand how they could have made a better choice. Newsletter – Please check your child’s newsletter for important dates, topics being learned in class, and classroom updates.

  14. Grades Not all assignments will be graded. If an assignment is graded it will have a number grade which will be averaged and recorded on their progress reports and report cards. Behavior, Work skills, Music, PE, and Art will be graded as E (excellent), S (Satisfactory), N (Needs Improvement), or U (Unsatisfactory). Attendance To obtain credit for completion of a grade level, students must attend at least 90% of the days. If a student is absent please send a note within 3 days of the absence. Please make sure your child arrives on time and is ready to work at 7:50am. Transportation If your child is going home a different way than usual, you must send a note or call the office. If we don’t get notification of the change, we will send the student home the usual way. If your child is or will be a car rider, the person picking them up must have a red sheet or they will have to go into the building to check out the student.

  15. You are allowed to send snacks to school with your child. Due to district policy, snacks cannot be shared. If you send birthday treats to school for your child’s birthday, we will share them at the end of the day. We will have 2 class parties, one right before winter break and one celebrating Valentines Day. Look for notices about these parties closer to the dates.

  16. Circle of Pride We want to recognize students who focus on good deeds! We would like students to think about good deeds they can do in their community, home, school, etc. After performing this good deed, the student must submit a piece of writing and picture that shows what they did and why it was important.
