Announcements

 Happy New Year everyone!!! I'm so excited about our new year and all of its 
opportunities.  Just wanted to share a few announcements about the upcoming 
year.  First of all we have a new neat gadget in our room called a 
Promethean board.  It is an interactive white board with tons of 
possibilites.  We are all so excited about this new educational resource.  
  There will soon be a new face in our classroom.  Ms. Katie Evans, a 
student from UTM, will be student teaching in our classroom.  I'll give you 
more information about Ms. Katie in the coming week.  She will begin her 
experience on Jan. 19th.




Congratulations to Viviana Rodriguez-Rico who is our December S.T.A.R. 
student.
Remember that I can only give the award to the student who acts 
responsibly.  Your responsibilites include getting your homework, getting 
your agenda signed, following directions, and staying on task.

Below is our behavior plan for this school year.  The students have been 
doing an awesome job of following the rules.  
 
 Behavior Plan 2010

1.  Conduct Chart- The student will receive a conduct chart at the beginning 
of each week that will be taped to their desk.  There is a list of behavior 
codes at the bottom of the chart to tell how much will be deducted for each 
behavior.  The student will get the chart signed and brought back each 
week.  If the student receives at least an 85 each week for a month, they 
will earn a FUN FRIDAY.  If the student does not earn at least an 85 each 
week, they will not be able to participate in FUN FRIDAY.  The first FUN 
FRIDAY will be Aug. 28th.

2.  Button Jar- The students as a class will earn buttons in a jar for acts 
of kindness, correct answers to questions, respectfulness, etc.  If the 
class earns fifteen in one week, they will be rewarded with listening to 
music on Friday during one class period. 

3.  RECESS- I am trying to get away from taking recess with rewarding the 
FUN FRIDAY, however I will write the word RECESS on the board.  The class as 
a whole will lose 5 min.  for each letter of the word if they continue to 
disobey as a whole.

4.  Study Hall- The students who do not finish their work during class time 
will have to finish their work during study hall.  This is during recess 
time.
