The students have done a great job jumping right back into our routine! I just wanted to post a couple quick things. First, please remember that our specials' schedule has changed. Our new schedule is Monday/Art, Tuesday/PE, Wednesday/Spanish, Thursday/Media, and Friday/Music. Second, I wanted to let you know that I spoke with the students about a homework policy change I am making. I have found that all too often students are rushing through corrections on practice work and then having to redo and turn them in 4 to 5 times! It's gotten a bit out of hand, so my new policy is that they have one opportunity to turn in work corrected. After that, if they still have questions, they can bring it to the guided work table to work on with me. The final idea I wanted to mention was having parent volunteers come in to work with small groups of students on reading and/or math. I would want a fairly consistent schedule if possible. If you have a day and time of day that you could volunteer to come in weekly and work with us, please send me an email so we can work something out. The students would love the extra support! Thank you in advance! [email protected]
