Welcome to Open House! Mrs. Traylor’s Superstars 2014-2015 “Bee” excited about 4th Grade!
Welcome! Thank you SO much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come to Open House. This will be a year full of academic and personal growth for your child. Tonight’s Agenda: All about 4th Grade Our Daily Routine Fourth Grade Lingo Odds and Ends and Everything in Between Transportation Communication and Closing Remarks
Our Mission Statement: We believe in: • Treating everyone and everything with respect • Being responsible for our own actions • Being a good friend to everyone • Striving to do and be our BEST!
All about Fourth Grade “Teamwork makes a dream work!” • This is a transitional year, not just a “review” year. • Use the file to organize and monitor progress. Expandable File from Target • Check agenda and work nightly. • Homework is due at 7:50. Please do not bring your child’s homework to school. They need to learn to be responsible for their work. • Please keep absences to a minimum. We cover an immense amount of content each day. Please try to make appointments as late as you can.
Our Daily Routine • School starts at 7:50. Please come prepared. If your child is tardy, you must sign him/her in the office. They have to be in the classroom by 7:50. • Class work-I expect 100% effort! • Homework-Should not last over 40 minutes. There is usually reading and math every night. • Makeup work-A yellow makeup folder will be sent home with the missing assignments. How ever many days your child was absent is how many days he/she needs to make the work up. • Lunch is at 11:15. We have snack at 9:15. Please provide only appropriate snacks and water bottles that are spill proof. Please no peanut butter and/or nuts.

A Little More about Behavior… • I believe that everyone can succeed in my class. I hold my students to high expectations. I expect ALL students to come ready to learn! Disruptive behavior will not be tolerated. Each and every one of us is responsible for our own actions. Remember, every action has a consequence-both the good and the bad. • The school wide behavior plan will be enforced in my classroom. Students that misbehave will face the following consequences: he/she will first be given a warning, second he/she will be sent to another teacher’s room if the misbehavior continues, next will be an infraction/parent phone call, a second infraction followed by an after school detention, and a third infraction will result in an office referral. • 4th Grade Expectations- 1st Quarter\4th Grade Expectations PowerPoint.pptx
