Fuzzies “Clean” Behavior Sheets › Weekly and Monthly Lunch and a movie (LUNCH) A/R Points and A/M Objectives Fun Friday!
17
Our goal is to create an environment which is stimulating and safe for your child. This includes assisting children in making appropriate behavioral choices. Each child has a behavior contract in their agenda. In their agenda we will record any classroom infraction on the date that it occurred. Please be aware that missed homework is considered a classroom infraction. A child who receives two marks in one week will lose 5 minutes of Fun Friday. If three or more marks are recorded in your child’s folder they will lose Fun Friday and we will note in his/her agenda.
18
Students received an agenda and a “Take Home” folder on the first day of school. They are required to write the assignments down in their agenda. Every night students will have 20 minutes of reading homework, a math practice page, as well as to study for tests the night prior to a test. Wednesdays they will need to complete a spelling activity. Please take a few minutes to sign off on the student’s agenda after you see that the homework has been completed. In addition, we may leave comments of praise or concern, please feel free to do the same.
