How are birthdays celebrated in Room 5?
Every child loves to celebrate their birthday. I make a special point to
assign a special day for children with summertime birthdays. Please feel
free to send in a treat for the class. (25 students, if you choose to send
in cupcakes or cookies, please also send in napkins!) The children will be
given a homework pass to use for 1 written assignment of thier choice, I
also acknowlegde their Baptism day with a homework pass.
--------------------------------------
Water Bottles?
Research shows that keeping the brain hydrated is important to helping the
students learn, so I encourage you to send your child with a small 8oz water
bottle (sports tops only!!! to reduce spills!!)
--------------------------------------
Book Clubs?
This is it! "Leaders are Readers!" If your child is not hooked on reading
2nd & 3rd grades are the best times to help them catch the fever! Book club
orders will be sent out monthly. Any time you order I earn points to order
supplies for the classroom. I can only accept checks make out to the book
company directly. (no cash!)

Will the children have homework on the weekends?
I believe weekends are family time, however we cannnot forget all the
blessings that God has been so good to give us. Therefore each weekend the
children should attend Mass, especially since we are preparing to recieve 2
sacraments this year. Also, since I am a firm believer in helping the
children to be strong readers they are required to read 10 mins each day.
Very rarely will I ever schedule a test on a Monday, but it does happen
sometimes, I will give you plenty of notice.
--------------------------------------
What do I have to sign?
You must sign/initial your child's homework copybook each night, any
additional math, religion, ILA papers must also be reviewed and signed/
initialed. Lastly, Your child will be given a conduct stamp each day, please
inital that box a well.

What is the Book-It Club
The Book-It club is a reading incentive club sponsored by Pizza Hut. Each
month that the children complete the stated goal they are rewarded with a
certificate for a free personal pizza.

Tennis Balls?
Each students needs to bring to school 4 used tennis balls with a slit cut in
the top of them. These are placed on the feet of the student cahirs. They are
a big help with noise reduction in the classroom and heps to keep the floor
from being scratched up too much.
