Some Things to Keep in Mind: 


- Students look so nice in their uniforms! Check the policy from time to time to be sure your child is following our dress code. Our classroom is chilly - willy! It would be a good idea to send along a sweatshirt or jacket to keep in your child's cubby.

- Behavior cards should be checked and signed at the end of every week. The cards should be returned to class on Monday.

- Homework pads should be reviewed daily for special notes about assignments or behavior. 

- Multiplication facts are very important in the fifth grade. Students need to study, study, study, and MEMORIZE those facts!
