Thank you to everyone who came last night to Back to School night! I just wanted to address some immediate concerns and questions as well as recap some important info from last night.

A common question from last night was, “How do we know if my child is getting behind?”

To keep you in the loop, each week (normally on Mondays) I will post what projects we are working on in class throughout the week. This will give you an idea of what we are trying to accomplish. I will also include due dates so that you can help keep your child accountable. In class we will be tracking their progress on their project trees. They will highlight each project once it is completed. I know many of you are concerned that your child may fall behind, so I hope with the project trees and my weekly post on what exactly your child should be completing for the week, we will work together to help them achieve their projects.

“Does class dojo track academic achievement?”

Class dojo is strictly for class behavior. The percentages that you see when you log in, show your child’s behavior for the week. I cannot link this app to academics. It is only to see how your child is positively and how they can improve.

My goal and hope is to keep you informed about academics and behavior all year long.

Due every Friday: Weekly reading responses. We are also having our first Vocabulary quiz tomorrow. We have been talking about the words all week in class. Vocab quizzes will always happen on Fridays.

If are looking for our daily schedule, I posted it under the curriculum section. 🙂 Please let me know if you have any questions!
