Everything A Great Learner (needs) Everyday!

Our class is using EAGLE notebooks to keep us organized.  Our EAGLE notebooks hold everything students and parents need to keep informed of class and school events and information.  No more lost notes, lost lunch money or lost book orders!  Gone are the days of searching the house for a paper to write the teacher a note.  Everything is right here in one binder.

The notebook includes many important parts:

1. Bird’s Nest:  Use this pouch for keeping those “golden eggs” safe including money, office notes, book orders, etc. 

2. School calendar and Class Monthly Calendar:  Our school calendar is included as well as a class monthly calendar.  I will add a calendar each month that outlines what we are doing in class and due dates for projects.

3. Memory Verses:  We will add a new memory verse each week.  Your child will recite the verse from memory on Fridays.  We will keep them all together to show how much scripture we have added to memory. 

4. Reading Log:  The nightly reading log will also be kept here to be marked each night.  This will include contest reading logs, also.

5. Daily Planner:  A planner used to record assignments and notes.  There is a yellow column on the right hand side for communication.  Spelling words are also recorded on the right hand side.  Please initial the yellow box EVERY night to let me know you have seen it.

 

      Students must be responsible for the notebooks and bring them to school every day (responsibility is one of our character traits).  Please help your child by reminding him/her to bring it each day and remember these important do’s:

1. Do take very good care of your EAGLE; it will be used all year.

2. Do bring your EAGLE home each afternoon and bring it back each morning.

3. Do clean out Tuesday folders each week.

4. Do show your parents your EAGLE every evening and ask them to initial your daily planner pages EVERY night.

      Also remember these important don’ts:

1. Don’t eat or drink in front of your EAGLE.

2. Don’t leave your EAGLE in your car, at daycare, or at Grandma’s.

3. Don’t let anyone tear any pages out of your EAGLE or borrow it.

 

 

Please take care of your EAGLE.   It will be your responsibility to replace any of these materials during the year.
