nuts+and+bolts

Welcome to third grade! I wanted to add a few bits of information that you will want to know about how our classroom is run.

 1. Usually, all home communications will go home with your child on Monday. It will be located in the "homework to do" section of the notebook.  2. Your child may have a water bottle at his/her desk and I encourage them to do so. I do, however, require that it has some sort of sippy top to minimize spills. I also ask that you provide a small washcloth to sit under the bottle to help keep your child’s desk dry as condensation forms on the bottle.  3. Please check your child’s assignment sheet nightly (found in their homework notebook) for an accurate update of things that are due.  4. Because the temperature of our classroom varies quite a bit over the course of a day, be sure your child has a DCA sweater at school. Properly label the inside with your child's name because it is very difficult to tell one sweater from another!  5. Your child's notebook contains an assignment sheet and current work in the front. The next section is called "Parent Review" and contains completed work for your perusal. The last section we refer to as "big tab" which contains work currently in progress. Please fee free to look over your child's notebook but do not remove any papers contained therein.
