The Week of September 15th

Hello Families,

The iPads were sent home today with a list of apps that need to be downloaded. Doing this from home will save us learning time in the classroom. If you cannot download at home, please let me know and we will download at school.

Please make sure the iPad comes to school every day charged. The charger should stay home or in the student's backpack.

Homework this week:

Math: JUMP pages each night on Numeration (mainly review)

Social Sciences:  please read pages 4-7 in the text Places in Time  (this represents three short paragraphs)

Language Arts: Reading Comprehension text "Ebola: Battling a deadly virus." Questions are due Friday

Communications home:
- a first list of FREE apps to be installed, sent home Monday
- Parent letter about iPad use, to be sent home Tuesday
- login information for specific apps will be sent later in the week

Please use this link
to join the class Remind account

Have a wonderful week,
Kathy Napier

Meet the Teacher Night: Thursday, September 11th

Hello Parents,

If you are interested in receiving emails updating you on the week's homework, paperwork, and special events, please use the toolbar on the left to subscribe to this page.

While students will continue to update their agendas, this blog can provide information when students are absent or they haven't time to copy down the homework from the board.

If you have questions about an assignment, please contact me directly, through the blog or by email, and not in the comment section below, which I may not see in time for it to be helpful to you.

For more information on my homework policy, please check the tab above.

Wishing you a productive school year,

September 3rd, 2014

Welcome back, Families,

As the school year begins I will be communicating with you through this blog, the class blog, and through newsletters you will find in your child's agenda.

On this page you can find information about current assignments and important dates. You can subscribe to the page in the sidebar on the left, and new posts will appear in your email inbox.

Please note that the Meet the Teacher Night will be next Thursday, September 11th. A newsletter will be sent home from the office shortly.

This week:
There is a great deal of paperwork coming home. Thank you for making time to look through it all and to note important dates.

Students will have small amount of math homework this week, due always the day after it is assigned.

Please pay special attention to the iPad paperwork, and if you can make time to create an Apple ID for your child (following the instructions on the paper sent home Wednesday) it would be much appreciated.

For Friday, if your child could bring in old magazines for a class art project, it would be much appreciated.

Thank you so much, and please don't hestitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Warm regards,
Kathy Napier
