Mrs. Durocher & Mrs. Daley's 4th Grade Class

We know we're a few days late on this, but we've FINALLY posted the 5 Finalists for our Best Website contest on our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/TeacherWebInc. You have from now until midnight next Wednesday, May 22nd, to vote on your favorite. The winner will receive a free year of TeacherWeb, and the 4 runners-up will get $15 Starbucks giftcards, so vote wisely! The Finalists' websites are posted in their own photo album on our Facebook page, so check those out first, visit the sites, click around, then come back and vote via our poll.

Thanks for your participation - we were amazed by all the entries and fantastic websites that we got to review, and if you didn't end up in the Top 5, know that it's because there are so many stellar educators out there using our products to reach their students and families that it was almost impossible for us to choose.

Thanks again,
The folks at TeacherWeb

Behavior:
Brywood Elementary has implemented the PBIS (Positive Behavior Intervention 
Support)system. The behaviors that we expect for students, parents, and staff 
are 
outlined in our new school motto S.C.O.R.E. (Success, Compassion, On-Task, 
Respect, and Effort). In and out of the classroom, students can earn 
S.C.O.R.E. cards for modeling specifically taught behaviors. We celebrate the 
students every Friday during our flag deck ceremony.

In our classroom, when students are being disruptive or disrespectful, a 
conversation will take place with the teacher and student. If the behavior 
continues, an office referral form may be filled out and parents will be 
notified.

HOMEWORK:
Homework is an essential part of developing time management, responsibility, 
and good study and work habits.  Students will use their Brywood planner 
daily to record assignments.  Homework is divided into two categories, 
daily and weekly.  Daily, students finish assignments not completed during 
class.  These are used to practice and reinforce new learning.  On a weekly 
basis, students will be responsible for Science Interactive Text, Daily 
Geography and Spelling. Students should also be practicing math facts and 
silent reading (20 minutes a night)four nights a week. Homework is due as 
noted in the planner.  If you are unsure if your child has written the 
assignments correctly, please check the class website. Late work will not be 
accepted.

COMMUNICATION:
If at any time you have any questions, comments, or concerns you can 
reach us at kellydurocher@iusd.org and mollydaley@iusd.org or by phone at 
(949)936-5527. However, email is the best way to reach us.

GRADING:
There are two types of grades that you may see on your child’s work. There 
are effort grades (check plus, check, check minus) and letter/percentage 
grades(A, B, C, D).

Please look through your child's work in his/her "Friday Folder". A progress 
report will be sent mid-trimester to inform you of your child's progress.

FIELD TRIPS:
We usually go on three field trips per year.  When a permission slip comes 
home, please try to return it promptly.  We often have deadlines to submit 
payment.

We always need parent volunteers.  However, some trips limit the number of 
parents that can go.  If you are interested in chaperoning, please sign up at 
the bottom of the information letters as they come home.  When needed, a 
drawing will be held for those who complete the slips.

BIRTHDAYS:
In Room 15, we all love to celebrate birthdays!  To promote a healthy 
lifestyle, our school policy is that no food or drinks be brought in to 
celebrate. Instead, students may choose to do one of the following if they 
wish:

*Donate a book to our class library
*Provide a new playground ball
*Bring in school supplies such as pencils/erasers/highlighters for the 
students
*Bring a small toy or party favor for each student

Please limit the amount spent to $1.00 or less per student. Celebrating 
birthdays at school is always optional and your choice. Thanks for your 
continued support!
