Planner Police

It is just so exciting to unpack new school supplies. Room 100 has spent the first couple of weeks getting organized. As students rotate between several classrooms, organization helps them experience success. Students are learning to maintain planners and binders daily. This task will only feel like a mammoth chore if it is neglected over a period of time. 
You may monitor your child's progress at home by checking the folders in the binder. Assignments are placed in subject folders and every student carries a folder labeled Take Home. Graded papers and school notes are placed in this folder. These graded papers may come out of the binder at night. I hope you will take time to discuss your child's work and offer encouragement. 
Organization skills are worthwhile life-long skills. The goal for organization is to eliminate tardiness, forgetfulness, and lack of preparedness.   
The Planner Police make frequent visits to Room 100. Their job is to check students' planners, binders, and desks. If needed, students are ticketed and encouraged to get organized before they get the incentive treat. 

Today's planner police treated the entire class to donuts. We are off to a great start. It has been such fun getting to know these kiddos.
Thanks again for equipping students with the needed supplies.

You may monitor your child's progress at home by checking the folders in the binder. Assignments are placed in subject folders and every student carries a yellow folder labeled Take Home. Graded papers and school notes are placed in this yellow folder. These graded papers may come out of the binder at night. We hope you will take time to discuss your child's work and offer encouragement.

Thanks again for equipping students with the needed supplies. I think they all agree that new supplies add to the back-to-school fun. New crayons will always make me a happy person - - I don't care how old I get!

Helping students with organization is important. Organization skills are worthwhile life-long skills. The goal for organization is to eliminate tardiness, forgetfulness, and lack of preparedness.
The beginning of second semester is a good time to check over school supplies. Students may need to restock their supply of pencils, pens, and/or paper. 
You may monitor your child's progress by checking these folders.  
 Red = Language Arts
Green = Science
Blue = Math
Purple = Social Studies
Yellow = News and Notes 
The "planner police" make frequent visits to Room 102. Their job is to check students' planners and desks. Students are ticketed and encouraged to get organized before they get the incentive treat.

Today Room 102 celebrated a successful first semester.         
There were no tickets - - just cake and smiles.









A shout out to Third Grade Love for sharing the "ticketed" download.
