5th Grade and 6th Grade Science. 5-1 Social Studies

 

Mrs. Laub

 Please check my website each night.  Sometimes, I do not see each class everyday.  This is the only way I can get important information out to each one of you.  There are NO excuses for saying to me, that you did not know. 
All homework and  test schedules will be posted on my website and homework board in class each day
Books and Supplies-All textbooks in science and social studies must  be covered.  Soft covered books must have contact paper.  A hard cover notebook is used in science  and social studies. One for each subject. Blue or Black pens are used only in school. A homework assignment pad is used for writing down homework each night.
Homework-Homework is given periodically in Science and Social Studies. NO late homework will be accepted unless the student is absent or has a note from a parent or guardian. Three missing homeworks will result in a detention. Referrals will be given for each missing homeork. I strongly believe that homework is a valuable aid in helping students make the most of their experience in school. EVERYONE starts off with a 100%, 5 points will be taking off every time you miss a homework. If the homework is collected and graded and is not in the day it is due a zero will be earned.
TESTS- Tests need to be signed and returned the day after they are given back. Please make sure you check your child's folder each day to see any important information that needs to be returned the next day....Folders will be kept in school for science  tests, quizes, and projects. GRADES will be posted on cornerstone for science .  It is very important that you see these grades to make sure your child is showing you their tests, projects and quizes. Outlines will be given before each test on my website.
WEBSITE- All teachers have their own website. Please make sure you check each website each night.
Contracts will be given out to each student to sign for classroom rules, behavior and for science labs in the classroom.
FIRST Friday of every month will be mass. Students do not have to wear full dress uniform which includes vest, tie, etc.  The regular polo for girls and boys is acceptable .
