B.E.A.R.S. Binders  
 Dear Families,

I want to introduce you to your BEARS binder.  This is a very 
important part of my teaching because it is a means of communicating with 
you!  As you may have noticed, BEARS is an acronym for Becoming Efficient 
and Responsible Students.  Your child is required to take this binder home 
every afternoon and is also responsible for bringing it back to school in 
the mornings.  I will be checking the contents of the binder each morning. 
Here is how it is organized:

Money and Excuse Pouch:  please place any lunch money, field trip 
money, or donation money into this pouch as well as absentee excuses.
	Calendar for the school year: keep this as a reference for the 
school year.
	Daily schedule: this tells you what we will be doing each day and 
helps you to plan for visits to our classroom.
	Newsletter: this will be updated monthly
	Parent communication; This is a section for OUR communication.  The 
other will be for information that you simply need to read.  The notebook 
paper is just to have paper on hand for you to correspond with me 
personally. 
	Folder for homework: One side will house homework that needs to come 
back to school and the other will contain all the work that I have checked 
and can stay at home. 
	
The BEARS binder is great way to keep us both organized and encourage 
communication.  It will also encourage responsibility in the students. I 
have supplied all of the items in the BEARS binder at the beginning of this 
school year.  If any items are lost and damaged during the school year, it 
will be the responsibility of the family to replace those items.

Or, would you like to view and optionally restore one of these previous versions?
