This week we began to recognize 1-2 Super Scholars each day. Super Scholars are chosen based on following our class rules, demonstrating our core virtues, and always striving to do his/her personal best. At the end of each day Mrs. Trujillo and I discuss who demonstrated being a Super Scholar throughout the day and the following morning the names of students chosen will be listed on the board. As a Super Scholar your child may sit in a chair next to me during our read alouds, color with markers instead of crayons, be my personal helper, and at the end of the day is able to choose a homework pencil out of the bucket. I will sharpen the pencil, if requested, and the pencil is only to be used at home. Once a child has been chosen as a Super Scholar 3 times he/she will be presented with a Super Scholar certificate. Everyone is very excited to enter our classroom to find out who our Super Scholars are and are absolutely thrilled when his/her name is on the board!
Homework is progressing wonderfully! Students are working diligently to complete nightly homework and I am seeing a lot of improvement in our daily Spalding oral and written phonogram review. Next week we will begin learning our 2 letter phonograms. Please continue to review daily phonograms 1-26 (a-z) along with our new phonograms. The math activity book will be sent home on Monday. Once all math homework has been completed we will not be sending home the math activity book for the remainder of the week. For example, if Lesson 3.2 and 3.3 are assigned for the week and your child completes Lesson 3.2 on Monday, the book will be sent home again on Tuesday. If your child completes Lesson 3.3 on Tuesday, the math activity book will not be sent home on Wednesday. It will allow for Mrs. Trujillo to more effectively check in homework. If you ever have any questions or concerns about homework please do not hesitate to ask me in person or email me. Questions about Spalding grip, number formation, phonograms, etc. are always welcome. Unfortunately we have had a lot of sickness in our classroom these past few weeks. Kleenex and hand sanitizer is always available and encouraged! We always use hand sanitizer before snack and after coughing or blowing our noses. As a reminder if your child is absent for any reason you must call the attendance line at 623-218-6607 to leave a recorded message of your child's name, teacher's name, and reason for absence. Also, if your child visits the doctor and is diagnosed with a contagious infection please call our nurse, Beverly Perialas, to inform her. Mrs. Perialas is required to send home a notice to all parents of any contagious infections in the classroom for example, strep throat or pink eye. If you have a doctor's note for any reason you can either drop it off to Mrs. Perialas or have your child bring it to me and I will pass it along to Mrs. Perialas. Our goal, as always, is the safety and health of all our scholars! Reminders:
