• Homework:
     
    Homework is practice and should not be a struggle.  It is helpful if you communicate any homework issues to me.  Students will write their homework in their homework books  at the time it is assigned.  We do this as a class and check to make sure it is written.  
     
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
     
     
    Behavior:
     
    We have a classroom behavior plan that rewards individual as well as classroom behavior.  The school also has a schoolwide behavior plan known as the Hornet Hundred Program.  Students stay motivated to stay on task and be mindful of others.
     
     
     
    Instruction and Grading:
     
    Core content standards which drive instruction for all 5th grade students are used in my classroom.   I use a variety of interventions and methods to teach students these standards.  In addition to me assessing these standards, students will self monitor their learning.
