CLASSROOM EXPECTATIONS

Successful 3rd grade Ascension students R.O.A.R! This is the acronym I will use this year to help students remember and follow our classroom rules.

 

Students will be:

 

Respectful

On task

Always safe

Responsible

​

BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT

There will always be space for grace in my classroom, however, if issues arise this is my classroom behavior plan:

 

1. The student will be asked to redirect which includes a visual aide that reminds the student to make a better choice. 

2. A deduction of $1 in “Saunders Cash” (a proven motivator that will be explained during Back to School Night) will be taken for every misbehavior.

3. If there is a need for a third reminder, a letter will be sent home that must be signed and returned the following school day.

​

HOMEWORK

Homework is assigned on Mondays as a packet and due Friday morning. Homework is graded out of a possible 10 points.

During the week families should expect:

 

• 4 Go Math Standard Practice sheets

• 3-4 English Language Arts related tasks

• An optional reading log

 

AGENDAS AND HOMEWORK FOLDERS

Students are required to bring their homework folder and agenda from school to home and back again every day.

 

Math: Given daily and should be returned the following day.

Spelling: Students are expected to complete 3 activities on the Tic-Tac-Toe sheet. In addition, students should be actively practicing their spelling words daily. This will be turned in on Friday.

Reading Logs: Students should aim to read 20 minutes a night. They are excepted to fill out their reading log at least 4 times during the week. Reading logs are due Monday to give students time to catch up, as needed. 

Library: Library books are due every other Wednesday. This insures that the librarian is able to check books in before we arrive.
