Ways to Help at Home
• Provide time and space for your child to read independently free from distractions.
• All children need to be reading on grade level by the end of third grade.
• Model reading by allowing your child to see you reading at home.
• Make sure your child has a library card.• In every day discussion, encourage your child to explain
his/her thinking and support reasoning with facts.• Encourage your child to write: thank you letters,
journals, pen pals, personal stories and poems, etc.

Behavior System• Clip It Up!-- Students who clip up and earn 20 punches will be
able to write their name on the King/Queen of the Jungle! They will also get to choose an activity out of the behavior catalog.
-- Students who clip down will first receive a warning, then receive a consequence decided by the teacher and finally at the lowest level I will contact you personally about your child’s behavior.
-- At the end of each day, students will bring home a behavior report in their DOT Binder. Please review this daily with your child.
• Whole Class—Bucket Fillers• Behavior Plans if needed
