Progress Reports and Homework

Progress reports went home today. Please return the envelope and completed interview note as well as the signature part of the report. If the interview date or time does not work for you please return the note with a suggested day and time for a phone interview. I will be posting new writing homework tomorrow since we will be starting a new writing form tomorrow (procedural). Also, please return student portfolios once they have been checked over. Thank you!

Portfolios

Student portfolios went home today. Please take some time to go through the portfolio with your child. There is a tracking sheet at the front which will track their progress specifically related to the paragraph criteria from now until the end of January. Please complete the tracking sheet with your child. All of the work in the binder stays in the binder for the year so it can be tracked and referred to at any time in the classroom. The envelopes with work to stay at home will go home next week. Please return the portfolios at any time next week. As usual, if there are any questions please let me know. Thanks.

Dream Box Math

The Dream Box math logins were sent home today in your child's agenda (front page). The user name is their first name and the first letter of their last name (all lower case). Their password is their student number. They are using their student number instead of a picture password so that they can memorize their student numbers. They need to know their student numbers for all netbook and computer access at school. I will be sending home an information letter about Dream Box math to parents tomorrow. Students need to follow the link on the blog to access our school profile of Dream Box math to be able to log in.
Portfolios will be sent home on Friday. If there are any questions about anything please let me know. Thanks.
