FAQFrequently Asked Questions: This page contains answers to common questions of students and parents.
What happens if I don't do my homework? Your name will go in the homework notebook and your family will be informed through the weekly progress report. If I am absent, how much time do I have to make up my work? You get 1 extra day per each day that you were absent. I'm concerned about Outdoor Ed. Do I have to go? Outdoor Education is part of the fifth grade curriculum for San Mateo County and other parts of the country. It is an incredible experience that you will cherish and I highly recommend that all students be allowed to participate. Plus, I will be there if you need a helping hand! Why do you make me put everything into a binder? The binder system is one that you will use in middle school and beyond. Since this is your last year before you go to middle school, we fifth grade teachers feel that now is the perfect time to learn how to keep an organized binder. Trust me, it will help you tremendously in the future! What happens if I break a class rule? If you break one rule, your name goes on the board. If you break two rules in one day, you get a check placed by your name and must serve a detention through beautification of the school during your recess. What is the point of doing homework? Homework is really important because it gives you a chance to practice what we learned in school. The spelling packet is essential because by doing the different assignments, you get to learn your spelling words. As fifth grade students, you set an example for the younger students through your positive actions. Cleaning up the schoolyard helps our local animals thrive, keeps our oceans clean, and shows our Ortega Otters pride! |
