Welcome Parents and Students!!!

It is great to be back in room 22. I'm excited for this 2010-2011 school year. Just saying 2011 is weird. I thought we were suppose to be in flying cars by now. Back to the Future lied. This year will be full of new learning and fun. I will hope to update this blog once a week with information on school activities, current material we are studying, and general Riverview information.

Sports
Your child is eligible to participate in Football, Cross Country, and Girls Volleyball. Football will be the only sport practicing this week. Please turn in your permission slip ASAP.

Block R
I will be reviewing Block R with your child sometime next week. We will set goals for the coming months. Please understand that not participating in a sport makes it very difficult to earn Block R.

Back to school
Back to school night is next Thursday, September 2. I will give you specific times soon.

Homework
The homework I give should not take more than 30 minutes. I usually give a page in math, spelling, and English. Every night your child is expected to read 30 minutes a night, minimum. We will discuss homework in detail at BTSN.

AR
The AR goal for the first quarter is 20 points. We read aloud a new book ever quarter. Your child will be allowed to take an AR test to earn points on our read aloud books. I will pass out a Scholastic book order soon with a note describing the read aloud book for the first quarter.

Thank You soooooo MUCH!!!
Oliver, Kaylie, Callista, Shannon, Sydnee, Emiliano, Santiago, Anastasia, Logan, Amber, Jaden, Blake, Jung Ho, Hunter, Avery, Derek, and Nic have all brought in some form of classroom supp lies. Thank you so much parent for that support. The tissue, soap, and hand sanitizer are a blessing. We need these items now and especially when cold season comes around.
