Information

• Don't forget to look in your child's Monday folder tonight.  Please take out all papers and sign the folderI No "drop off's" at the office in the morning.
• Many Reading Logs were just turned in today withOUT a parent signature. (I am just glad that they were turned in and filled out... don't worry about the signature, if you didn't sign it! Happy Labor Day... I hope everyone had a great three day weekend!)
• Remember to encourage your child to read.  Your child is able to take AR tests, first thing in the morning with a laptop.  Please help them to find the quiz number, if there is one.  This will soon be second nature to them but please help in the beginning.  You can download a free scanner app on your phone or IPAD or go to arbookfinder.com The scanner app needs to scan the UPC code NOT the IHM library code.  Not all books have quizzes, but the majority of books at your house will have a quiz!
• Remind your child to turn in papers.  If it isn't in the tray, I can't grade it.
• When papers are assigned, I enter that date (assigned date) into Jupitergrades.If papers are not completed by the end of the day it becomes homework.  It needs to be turned in the next morning when we are unpacking. If it is not turned in the tray the next morning, it will start to loss point value (starting this week).  We should be into a rounting now!
• Spelling packets CAN be turned into the Spelling tray as soon as they are complete.  They are DUE on FRIDAY morning at the beginning of the day!  Students have Monday through Friday to complete it (unless a holiday Monday!)
• Assignment logs and Reading logs will be kept in their goal setting 3 ring binder once we are done with them. (Reading logs get turned in weekly... Assignment Logs are used for two weeks... one week on each side)
• Check my blog often or better yet.... just "subscribe"        jfeltman.blogspot.com   I have great information out there!  If you don't want to check my blog, ask your child to check it out frequently!
• Don't forget to order Scholastic books for your child.  It helps him/her to get excited about reading and it helps our classroom library with FREE books for our class!  (Due on Sept 18 with a code of NB4KB)
• Try to assign lexia or ixl at least once a week for homework.  It's not for a grade but will only benefit your child!
• Don't forget to study Math Facts.  Ask your child about the Math Enrichment games we have been playing in class!  Check my blog for other fun ideas to practice instead of just "drill" sessions!
• Did you ask about the picture on the back of my newsletter?
• ***** Picture Day is THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 10 ******
