Are you in the giving mood?
• In addition to the supplies you sent in, there are a couple of extra things we could use in the classrooms. – For example: bottles of Clorox
wipes, zip lock bags and baskets.
• Likewise as we continue throughout the year, we will be asking for different materials for different projects. Thanks in advance for these extra supplies.

Library• Library day is on Friday.
• Students need to bring their books back on Thursday so that on Friday we will all be ready to check out.
• If your student forgets to bring their books on Thursday, please have them bring it on Friday.
Birthday Celebrations• Birthdays are fun to celebrate. However, we are short
on time and have to be aware of food allergies. Therefore, if your child would like to bring in a snack to celebrate his/her birthday we ask the following:– We will celebrate birthdays at 2:05pm, which will take
place in your child’s afternoon class. – Please bring in cupcakes, muffin, cookies, cut up fruit,
etc– If you bring in a drink it must be in individual boxes.– In addition, if you don’t want to bring food, you could
bring small prizes for the kids (ex. erasers., pencils, stickers etc.)
* We have a handful of students with serious food allergies so please be extra mindful when bringing in birthday treats.
Tally Mark Sheet and Marble Jar
• Each class has there own tally mark sheet and marble jar. These two things are what Miss Valle and I use for behavior management.
Responsive Classroom• Responsive Classroom is a research- and evidence-based approach to
elementary education that leads to greater teacher effectiveness, higher student achievement, and improved school climate.
• Teaching practices are based upon– Knowledge of how children learn developmentally, culturally, and
individually– Awareness that social and accademic learning go hand in hand.– The belief that all children want to learn and can learn– CARES: Cooperation, Assertion, Responsibility, Empathy, Self-
Control
Outcomes:- Increases social skills and academic engagement
- Establishes positive classroom climate- Increases learning investment and independence - Decreases disruptive behaviors
Classroom Management Manejamiento del salón
Positive reinforcement/ Hacer lo correcto es enfatizadoResponsible list/ Lista de responsables
Collaborative problem-solving - Work together with students to solve academic and social problems and teach them skills for solving problems with increasing independence
Teacher Language - Reinforcing, Reminding, and Redirecting – Using
words as tools to promote learning community, and self-discipline
Logical Consequences – Respond to misbehavior with consequences that are supportive of students’ efforts to learn how to fix their mistakes“Take a Break” Chair
In cases of extreme behaviors, we will address administration or school counselor as necessary.
Fighting, bullying, and threats are
immediately reported to administration.
Spanish Homework• Each day your child will bring a
marble notebook with Spanish homework glued on a page and a plastic envelope with Spanish books. These activities need to be done daily and returned to school the next day. I will keep a record of “completed/ not completed” of the homework. At the end of each reporting period they will get a small prize for completion of homework.
Spanish Homework• The Spanish homework will consist of
Language, Science and/or Math activities. These activities relate, build on, reinforce, and/or enhance learning in the classroom. Parents should encourage their children to complete the work neatly and try to the best of their ability. In addition, students should have 20 minutes of reading or being read to every day, English or Spanish.
• In the “Sobre de Lectura” kids will bring Spanish books to read. Every week they will get new books. Your child must bring to school everyday the “Sobre de lectura”.
Dismissal
Please e-mail or send in notes for changes in dismissal for your child before 11 a.m.
• IF AN EMAIL OR NOTE IS NOT SENT, YOUR CHILD WILL BE SENT HOME AS USUAL. THIS IS THE LAW.
