Dear Parents or Guardians,
Hello! I am enjoying getting to know each student in my class. They are delightful, energetic, and eager learners.
Thank you so much for all the school supplies. If you have not paid for the National Geographic, please send in money by September 13, 2012 so I can order them for the class. This weekly reader is so important. It helps the students to read and use informational text.
If you have not looked at my classroom blog, please do. I am going to explain the types of things I will be doing this week in my class. The home page will have a weekly letter, and to the left there is a schedule of dates of important events. Other tabs include a homework tab, discipline procedures, and a games tab. If you click on these you can view what is for homework and descriptions of games I have taught or will teach, or web sites you can visit to assist your child.
The students took a baseline reading test last week. This provided me with information so I could put them in reading groups. I will continue to monitor and adjust to meet their needs as I get to know each student better. They will take a reading test on the story of the week on Thursday of each week. They will take it on the computer. I will send home the test scores. Students will also need to read for twenty minutes each night and record what they read on a reading log. They can read the reading story for two nights and record this as their reading. They can check books out from my library anytime they wish. Reading is very important. Please listen to your child read occasionally, ask questions and review with them as necessary. Parents must sign the reading log each night.
We have started math also. I will send home a note if your child needs to practice math facts. Students need to score a 90% or better on fact tests before they can go to the next set of facts. I will give them a fact test every Wednesday. I will review addition and subtraction facts through out the year.
Homework is very important. I have the students write their homework in their agenda on Monday for the week. I will check for accuracy and sign. Please check students homework and sign their agenda nightly.
The Fultondale Folder will be our communication folder for the year. It will come home every Monday. In this folder you will see their class work and tests. You will also see a behavior sheet. Please sign for the week and preview the papers. Please return the papers and folder. I will send the papers back home at the end of each nine weeks.
Third Grade will have Open House on September 4 at 6:00. I hope you will be able to attend. This meeting will answer many questions including grading parameters, third grade curriculum and expectations of a third grader. This is a very informative meeting.
I am looking forward to a fabulous, exciting year of learning with your child. If you have any questions or concerns please e-mail me at troberts@jefcoed.com. Have a great week.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Roberts

August 20, 2012 First Day of School
Dear Parent(s) Guardian(s),
Welcome to the 2012 - 2013 school year. I have a lot of exciting activities planned. Your child will work in groups to complete some activities, projects, and assignments and at other times, your child will work independently. It is very important for your child to understand that as a third grade student, he/she will be expected to complete all assignments and turn them in on time. Your child should know that you and I will be working as a team to ensure the best education possible.
I will expect students to come to class prepared. This means students should have supplies as neccessary. In preparing students for the future I will expect them to accept the consequences for their actions.
Weekly homework and class work will be assigned and should be completed by the students. Homework is necessary for reinforcement of the skills learned during the day. Points will be deducted if turned in one day late. No assignments will be accepted if they are over one day late, unless lateness is due to an excused absence. Assignments will be written in the agenda on Mondays. I will initial and check for accuracy for the first nine weeks. Parents please check your child's homework and initial in agenda that homework was completed. This is a must for the first nine weeks.
Weekly folders ( Fultondale Folder) with current grades and discipline will be sent home each Monday. The parent will need to sign sheet in folder and return folder with papers to school with your child the following day.
I will be using this blog as a communication tool. My weekly letter will be posted here with news, classroom activities, and pictures. My classroom blog is troberts@blogspot.com. I will let you know how to join. I believe this will be an effective tool for all of us to use to communicate.
I am looking forward to an excellent, productive, and exciting school year. If you have any questions or concerns, please email me at troberts@jefcoed.com or call the school at 379 - 3450 and make and appointment to meet with me.
We are going to have a fabulous year!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Roberts
