What is the best way to get in touch with my child's teacher?

If you have email, sending me email would be the best way to 
contact me. It is
difficult for me to return phone calls during the school day, as 
I am with the
students all day. If we need to speak by phone, I will be able to 
return a
call at the end of the student's day with me. Written notes from 
home are also
a method to contact me, and I will respond in writing if you 
would like me to.
Please remind your child to GIVE me the note, as sometimes notes 
remain in
folders until the end of the day--or longer. :) If you have any 
questions or
concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me via one of these 
methods.

How will I know what homework my child has?

Students will have three opportunities to write the assignments 
into their
agendas during our school day. Homework assignments are announced 
during the
subject area lesson, written on the board, and re-announced at 
the end of the
day by the class reporter.

What texts do you use?

We use a variety of resources in reading, but our primary text is 
the Houghton Mifflin anthology. Everyday Math is our text for 
mathematics. We are using the Sitton Spelling program. We utilize 
primarily the Delta Science program and From Sea to Shining Sea 
in social studies. Additional materials are incorporated as 
necessary to support learning.
