Homework Expectations
Remember that you have your planner and a homework folder. You are expected to use both everyday even if you can remember everything without them!
This is a great place to check out what you need for the week. Each day I will keep you up-to-date on all the activities in the classroom before you leave. If you are absent or not sure about something this is a good place to find some answers. Remember, the best way to stay on top of your game is to have everything with you before you leave school.
If you have suggestions or comments be sure to go to the contact page and send along an email to me. I will try to respond the same day. Remember, if you post an email after 8pm I will probably be resting and reading. You should be too!
We have a school web site also. Click on the link below and check it out. You will find the calendar for the school and other useful information.
