    Wide-ruled loose-leaf paper

    **Donating supplies to the class is greatly appreciated but considered voluntary and never mandatory.  If your child is missing something, I will supply it for them**

     

    School Supplies: To be successful, students will need to bring their folder inside their backpacks every day. Pencils and paper will be supplied in class. Occasionally, I will request materials needed for art projects, dioramas, models, and science experiments.  Donations are ALWAYS appreciated!

     

    Grade Level Standards:  All assignments and assessments will be based on 3rd Grade Common Core Standards.  Throughout the year, I expect all students to set educational goals which will enable them to meet these standards.  They will be given many opportunities to improve their skills and their progress will be reflected in weekly assessments, progress reports, and report cards.  

                         

    In Class Assignments: In class assignments should be finished during the allotted class time.  However, if more time is needed, assignments should be completed at home and will be due the following morning. (Extra time will be given for missing work due to absences.)

     

    Reading at Home: Reading at home is the most important part of your child’s daily homework routine (and is usually the only homework they will have). It is the expectation that every child reads AT LEAST 20 minutes everyday. I am passionate about reading and what it does for a student's overall growth and development.

     

    Accelerated Reader: After completing a book in class or at home, the students will take a Accelerated Reader (AR) quiz on our classroom computers or when we visit the computer lab.  Each book is worth points based on the reading level.  (For example, Junie B. Jones and Magic Tree House books are typically worth a ½ point while The Lightning Thief is worth 13.) Students will earn incentives/awards for reaching different point levels.  AR quiz scores will be sent home periodically with your child.

     

    Math Facts: You will want your children to be fluent in addition, subtraction, and multiplication facts quickly. Flash cards are very helpful and there are many websites with fact practice. J

     

     

    Discipline/Expectations:

    This year, I am implementing the 1 Rule Classroom:

     

    IF WHAT YOU ARE DOING:

    INTERFERES with learning

    HURTS someone's heart

    or

    PREVENTS you from being your best self

     

    YOU SHOULDN'T BE DOING IT

     

     

    Disruptive or destructive behavior will result in the following consequences:

     

    * verbal reminder of appropriate classroom rules

    * request to move to a less distracting or more calming area within the classroom

    * student phone call to parents asking for support and additional direction

    * support from school administration

     

    Physically harmful behavior will not be tolerated and will result in immediate separation from the other students.

     

    The administration asks that all parents be informed of the following items:

    ·         Children should not arrive or be dropped off earlier than 8:10am.

    ·         School lunches will continue to be free of charge this year.

    ·         Keep all phone numbers and emails up-to-date including your own as well as emergency.

    ·         Referring to the school/teacher websites for information regarding important dates, school policies and procedures, classroom information, etc…

     

    Families can communicate with me in person after school, through written notes, phone calls at (951)445-4110 ext.3339, and e-mail at: lzeller@murrieta.k12.ca.us.
