Important!! Please read the following information:
*At the beginning of each week, your child will receive a syllabus containing a list of activities and homework. In addition, your child must copy only the homework in his/her planner. I plan to give each student a copy of the syllabus for approximately a month. In order to conserve paper, students will be not be given a paper syllabus anymore. Instead, students will be able to copy the homework in their planner while viewing my syllabus via a LCD projector or from my chalkboard. In addition, my syllabus will be posted on my blog website. (See the blog website information at the top of this syllabus.) By all means, students who desire a paper syllabus may go to my website to copy my syllabus.
*Since this is the first full week of classes and my students were told, last week, they must have a folder and spiral. I recommend that the folder and spiral be the same color. If your child does not have matching materials then they should simply use the materials they have. Do not purchase additional materials.
