2012-2013 is Off and Running!
Good evening! We have two days of fourth grade under our belts and it has been so much fun getting to know each one of the kiddos! I was SO excited to have so many parents and students attend Meet the Teacher Night on Monday evening. I truly believe that a child's education is a dual partnership between home and school. It is my pleasure to be working with you and your child this school year.
This week, along with getting to know one another, we also have worked to set the tone for the year. There are several procedures we have put into place to help keep your child organized this school year. Each night, your child will bring home their D.O.T Binder and agenda. Their D.O.T. Binder, or Daily Organizational Tool will help ensure all important papers get home to you each evening and you can use it to stay current on what your child is doing in each class. Every day, students record the learning objectives in their agendas along with noting any assigned homework. They have been asked to bring their agenda home and share with you what we have learned using the agenda to assist them. Please initial or sign each evening under the daily objectives. You may also choose to use this portion of the agenda to write notes back to me.
Today was the first day to rotate between science and social studies. Students will enjoy exploring these content areas with Mr. Bonnel and Mrs. Wilson this year. If you have any questions regarding these subject areas as well as the rest of the curriculum, I encourage you to attend Curriculum Night on Tuesday, August 28th. We will have 3 - 30 minute rotations begining at 6:00 pm and ending at 7:30 pm. I will present to you more detailed information regarding our year together.
I plan to keep you posted regarding our daily school events using this blog. Please select to "Follow by Email" by scrolling down.
Thank you advance for a great year!!! :)
