Weeks of: Aug. 24th & Aug. 31st

Welcome to the 2009-2010 3rd grade school year!  I am so excited to get the ball rolling!  The first few days of school will be spent getting organized, going over rules and procedures, and pre-testing.  The pre-tests will not be graded.  Their purpose is purely for me to observe each student's level of understanding in reading and math.  By Thursday, August 27th, we will be in the full swing of things, and students will have homework to complete that evening.  
I have sent home a packet of information with your child.  The packet includes a welcome letter, a list of this year's curriculum, information about homework and monitoring student progress, a questionnaire, a teacher/student contract, and a pick-up policy sheet.  Please take time to look over the letter and curriculum.  Also, the questionnaire, contract, and pick-up policy sheet need to be filled in and returned to me by Monday, August 31st.  I am sure that there will be many questions during this first week or two.  Please feel free to call me or stop by with any questions.

Take Care,

Miss Jones
