The colors are as follows: • -Purple: Super- Respect check and ultimate treasure box • -Blue: Nice Job! Respect check and sticker • -Green: Good! (we all start here each day) Respect check • -Yellow: Warning This is a 2nd warning!! (a verbal warning was already given) • -Orange: Time out • -Red: Lose recess and note/call home!

  7. Homework and Star Binder • Each child will be given a STAR binder: Students Taking Active Responsibilities. This is an important tool to keep your child organized and responsible for their academic resources. The STAR binder needs to be brought to school EVERYDAY. Please assist your child in keeping this binder safe and clean. It is a very important tool for your child and it should last all year. It contains homework, lunch calendar, classwork, and academic resources. The binder is also a great form of communication so please feel free to drop a not in it under “Homework .” • Spelling and writing is posted on our school website under homework. Math is sent home daily. Please document spelling and reading on their monthly homework calendar. • Homework will consist of: • Spelling Sheet- 4 activities a week (checked on Fridays) • Houghton Mifflin Math daily- possibly supplemental math sheets (due daily) • Reading 15 minutes daily (listed on homework calendar) • Rainbow words- this can be apart of your child’s daily reading • As time progresses there will be basic writing homework with detailed instructions • will also be posted on our 1st grade website and our class website

  8. Report Cards/Standards • This year the MVUSD has switched from trimesters to semesters. 1st grade students are given District Assessments 4 times a year. Language arts assessments are one-on-one tests that measure how well your child is performing towards meeting the standards. Math assessments are both oral and written assessments that are given whole group as well as one-on-one. The first set of assessments will be shared with you in October during Parent/Teacher Conferences. • State Standards/Common Core: California is making a shift from state standards to Common Core. MVUSD is moving slowly towards CCSS starting with math with full implementation in the year 2016.
