Today I got to meet the Grade 3 Students I will have for the year and I had a great time. I know that I will have a great time with the children starting on Monday.
That said, I wanted to re-explain the things I was talking about to all of the parents about.
In the children’s Red Folder is a few important documents:
There is no Homework from this, however, there are 2 fun puzzles that are recommended to be done.
Children will need iPads. Some of our testing will be done on this in class, sometimes we will be using them for reading, or research. The children will not be using them for more than 40 minutes a day. Please make sure they are charged.
Folders are a way for us to help the children stay organized. Every day will have between 10~20 minutes of English homework, and 20 minutes reading. Parents are requested to make sure the children have time to do this, and then the children are expected to fill in a reading log for that day.
In the folder you will find: A weekly review booklet (This will be started 2nd week.) the children’s Math, Chinese, Chinese Math, Science, and all other homework. This is to keep everything organized, and make sure work is not damaged in transit. I recommend you check with the children each night to see that it is all together.
The Chair:
The Chair in 3D is for when students have strong emotions, they can sit there and relax by hugging a stuffed toy. This is a method to help children learn to control emotions, and manage themselves.
Have an amazing weekend everyone!
