HOMEWORK POLICY
Homework is an important aspect of your child’s education. Your child will
be given their homework assignments on Monday and are expected to turn it
all in on Friday. I will go over some of the homework in class. However, I
will also collect some of the homework for a grade. The homework
assignments reinforce skills taught in class and it also is a parents link
to topics discussed in class.
SNACK POLICY
The students have snack everyday at 10:00. Our lunch is scheduled at 12:40
and the students have a difficult time staying focused and on task when they
do not have a snack. Snack donations are always apprectiated. It will be
used for those students who forgot their snack that day.
BEHAVIOR POLICY
My goal this year is to create an atmosphere of open communication.
Every week your child and I will take the time to fill a bahavior
chart. This is my way of letting you know about your child’s work habits and
behavior in school.
This will keep your child on the right track throughout the school
year. Your child’s success is very important to me. In order to maintain a
positive learning environment for all students, I expect your child to
follow the classroom rules and behavior plan. My behavior plan encourages
and rewards positive behavior. This plan will increase your child’s
learning time by decreasing behaviors that interrupt valuable instruction
time.
Student Expectations
The students expected behavior comes from the Anderson Elementary ROPES
PROGRAM.
Respect for self and others
Outstanding Performance
Prepared for Excellence
Establish Good Habits
Stay Safe
DISCIPLINE PROCEDURES:
This year your child will be introduced to a reward system using a card
system. It is a way for your child to earn items as well as monitor their
behavior. Students are encouraged to be responsible for their own actions.
Students will have the opportunity to earn points and rewards by using
appropriate behavior in class each day. Students will have four different
colored cards to help them keep track of their own actions. The number of
points they earn each week allows them to pick from the following awards:
Freedom Friday
Sitting Next to a Friend in the Classroom
Having Lunch in the Classroom
Earning a No Homework Pass
Picking Something Small from the Treasure Box
If a student does not earn points then a discipline note (see attached) goes
home. If the note is not signed, a phone cal home will be made. If the
student continues to act inappropriately in the classroom, then a parent-
teacher conference will be made.
Green: 3 points
Yellow: 2 points (warning)
Red: 1 points (Discipline note home or phone call)
Orange: 0 points (a referral to the office)
Points are earned daily. The points earned at the end of the week will be
used during a "Freedom Friday" time and other rewards!!!
