  3. All About Ms. Elliott • My background • I grew up in Bakersfield, California. • I attended college at CSUB. • My experience • I’ve taught 1st grade, Title 1, 2nd grade, 3rd grade, and have helped in Kindergarten and 5th grade. • I taught 3rd grade for the past 3 years at Castle.

  4. My Goals • To give students the academic and social skills needed to progress to fourth grade. • To create a healthy learning environment, which promotes academic advancement. • To develop independence, responsibility, and good study/work skills. • To help students make new friends and discover new interests.

  5. Classroom Rules • Our classroom is a community. In our community, we have rules to help us get along with each other. • Our class rules are: Listen to and follow instructions Enter and exit prepared Always try your best Respect yourself and others No excuses!

  6. Conduct Marks = exceptional positive behavior choices = unwarranted behavior choice and code = student had a good day *Student responsibly logs their behavior on their Weekly Progress Report in their Home and School Connection folder.

  7. Conduct Code Needs Improvement 1. Talking out of turn 2. Unprepared 3. Off task Making Smart Choices 4. Participating 5. Working hard 6. On task

  8. Consequences • A – 0 Check Marks (making smart choices) • B –1 Check Mark (warning) • C – 2 Check Marks (miss 1 recess) • D – 3 Check Marks (miss 2 recesses) • F – 4 Check Marks (call/note home or office referral) • *Please remember that some behaviors may result in an immediate referral/detention /visit to the office*

  9. Classroom Rewards • Rewards for Good Choices • Students add stars for making smart choices. Students will use stars to purchase items at my monthly student store. Each Star = $1.00 • Tickets and Chance drawings • Free Homework, bathroom, or water pass • Prize box • Class Celebration • Positive reinforcement

  10. Honor Hour Guidelines • Honor Hour is the last Friday of every month. • Fun filled outdoor activities and snacks • Incentive for students who are responsible with their school work and have good behavior. • No Honor Hour- • 10 unfinished homework or classwork assignments • 10 Conduct Marks (including bathroom use) • Suspension

  11. Grading Scale 100%-90% = A Excellent 89%-80% = B Very Good 79%- 70% = C Satisfactory 69%- 60% = D Barely Passing 59%- below = F Failing • Graded papers will be sent home one week after they are given. • Check grades through ParentVue or StudentVue on the PBVUSD website. • Each student will have the opportunity to improve failing assessment scores (69% or lower) if he/she chooses to correct all incorrect problems during their recess time.

  12. Progress Reports The goal of the progress report is to give the parents and students an idea of current grades and provides a chance to focus attention on any needed areas before report cards are sent home at the end of each quarter. The progress report will reflect the student’s progress and growth throughout the quarter. This report must also be signed by a parent and returned promptly.

  13. Homework Homework will be assigned on a daily basis and will be collected and graded the following day it is assigned. Students will be responsible for daily reading, a Reading Log, Math homework, and other work that is not completed in class. Homework will go home in the Home & School Connection folder. The folder needs to come back to school everyday for other assignments/flyers that may be handed out during the day/week. Homework will be checked for completeness, general accuracy, effort, and neatness. Homework will be factored into the student’s quarterly Work Habits grade on their report card. 1. Language assignment (spelling, vocabulary, grammar) 2. Math assignment (math facts or practice book page) 3. Reading Log- (Read 15- 20 minutes)

  14. Key Communication • Check Backpacks Daily - Check HW log is filled out and all HW is brought home. - Check that HW is completed and returned to school the next day • Provide Supplies and a quiet place for HW • Make sure your student is in school for the entire day. • Communicate if you have any questions, comments, or concerns. jelliott@pbvusd.net

  17. Basic Math Facts • It is very important that all students master the addition and subtraction facts through 18. • I strongly urge students to practice basic math facts by using flashcards on a daily basis. • Facts can be practiced during meals, in the car, before bed, during commercial breaks, walking to school, in the bath, etc. • We will also be working on multiplication this year. Students will need to memorize their multiplication facts through 12 at home as well. • Daily practice with basic facts will significantly help your student. 1st Quarter 100 Addition and Subtraction Facts in 5 mins. 2nd and 3rd Quarter- 100 Multiplication Facts in 5 mins. 4th Quarter-100 Division Facts in 5 mins. Math Facts Scoring Guide 90-100% A (Mastery) 80-89% B (Approaching Mastery) 70-79% C (Satisfactory) 60-69% D (Unsatisfactory) 59% and below F (Failing)

  18. Attendance • It is very important that your student comes to school on time every day. • If you know that your student is going to miss school, please make sure you notify me so that I can give him/her the assignments that will be missed. • It is your student’sresponsibility to make up any assignments missed. • Any assignment not completed will result in a lowered grade.

  19. Bathroom Policy • Five “911” passes are given each quarter • After students use all their passes, they will earn a conduct mark; resulting in a lowered grade. • Please remind students that they have 3 opportunities throughout the school day to use the restroom. • Class time- students miss class time when they leave to use the restroom. Some taking 5-10 minutes to return to class. Therefore falling behind in their class work.

  20. Birthdays If you would like to bring an individually wrapped treat for your child’s birthday, please contact me or send a note with your child the day before.
