5. Homework  Homework is assigned nightly except on Friday.  Unless the assignment board indicates a later due date, assignments are due the next day.  I do accept late homework, but it counts toward weekly learning skill grades.  Extracurricular clubs, classes, etc. can not excuse missed work.

6. Each Friday Home/School Communication folders will be sent home each Friday with important papers and graded work. Included in the folder will be a Learning Skills Report with your child’s learning skills grades for the week. Please sign and return each week.

7. Other Communications  Weekly Wolfe notes  Biweekly student letters  Emails are always welcome  Scheduled conferences I’m happy to speak with you. Please contact should you need a conference, and sign up for November!

8. STUDENT ABSENCES  Please try to arrange vacation during designated vacation days.  Should your child have an unexcused absence, I will try to help with work upon his or her return.  I’ll try to let you know in advance if I’m going to be out of school should you be looking for a day for an appointment, etc.

9. Math-N-Munches & Read-N-Feeds  The building of a strong and supportive classroom community is paramount to the success of all children.  By working together as a classroom community, we’ll be able to earn Math- N-Munches & Read-N-Feeds!

10. Thank you for helping us to have such a phenomenal beginning!
