FAQFrequently Asked Questions: This page contains answers to common questions of students and parents.
What if a student receives a score lower than 75 on an assignment? Students have the option of correcting any assignment in which they scored lower than 75. Once the assignment has been corrected the student will then receive a score of 75. Once a month the 5th grade holds a Circle Free Party for those students who have worked hard all month to keep current on assignments. What happens if a student has a circle? When a student does not hand in an assignment on time the teacher will circle that assignment in the student's planner. Once the student completes the assignment the teacher will either initial or stamp the circle to show that the assignment has been completed. The student is then "Circle Free." However if the student does not complete the assignment before the Circle Free Party then the student may not participate in the party and must instead go to the work room. The student does not get to join the party once the assignment is completed. When is work due before the Circle Free party? All work must be handed in before dismissal time of the day before the Circle Free party. This allows the teacher time to correct each assignment. Work may NOT be handed in the morning of the Circle Free party! What about those monthly chapter books? Each student is asked to select an Accelerated Reader chapter book in their reading level at the beginning of the month. They then have approximately 3 weeks before the Circle Free party to read the book and take the test. The student must score a 70 or higher on the test. If not, they will have to reread their chapter book and get a circle in their planner. |
