COURSEWORK/HOMEWORKIn class, we will use a multi sensory, integrated approach to learning, working on individual objectives within a unit of study. In project based learning assignments, we will be working on reading, writing, math, social studies and science. Revision and layering of learning opportunities will be used to enrich learning, provide support in different ways, and increase understanding.
COMMUNICATIONA communication binder will be sent home each day to give you a glimpse of your child's day. We encourage parent notes and comments to let us know how your child is doing at home. Important things to note are events that may affect your child's behavior and mood so we can take steps to ensure a successful day for your child. These binders will be read as they are received and responded to accordingly. In addition to the communication log, there may be times you wish to contact me or times I may need to contact you. I will return all calls and emails at the earliest opportunity. If you need immediate assistance, please contact the school at (512)-858-4663.
