  12. Planner:

  13. Changes Promotion and Retention • Shift to Common Core = TBQ and TBW • Materials from the county office can be found at the following site: • http://www.fldoe.org/eduaccsummit.asp • County policies can be found at the following site: • http://www.planning.leon.k12.fl.us/Policies/415.htm • State Testing • FCAT science • FSA (Florida Standards Assessment) for all other subjects = math, reading, and writing • Benchmarks • Students must master 100% of all benchmarks at 70% or better in reading, language arts, math, science, and social studies. • SSS for science http://www.cpalms.org/Public/Search/CriteriaSearch?search=Standards&subjectId=29&gradeId=10

  14. Homework • Assignments are written daily in planner. • Assignments are follow-up practice. • *You may help, but first encourage independent work. Select 3-5 problems to review. Students can come in early/after school to get additional help.* • Remember -> Homework is your child’s responsibility • It is CRUCIAL for students to learn responsibility and organization BEFORE middle school. • Reality Therapy – Glasser (Helping Habits)

  15. Birthdays • We love cupcakes and birthday celebrations. Just give a little advance notice, and we can help your child celebrate the big day at snack time. • If you decide to bring in a special treat, please remember to include napkins and a safe, store bought treat for students who have peanut allergies. • Please, no peanuts of any kind. *Please don’t send party invitations to be passed out at school UNLESS you are inviting the whole class. Students have feelings that get hurt easily when watching some people get invitations…and they aren’t invited. Thank you for your understanding.
