Welcome Letter

August 2015

Dear Parents,

Welcome! We had a successful first week of 5th grade. We spent time getting to know one another and learning about our school rules and classroom expectations. We also began working on our curriculum goals. I’ve enjoyed getting to know your student and their particular interests and abilities.
           
In 5th grade we have a lot going on. One way of keeping up with what we are doing in our classes is through your student’s planner. Students are required to record all assignments and topics of focus. They should check them off as they are completed and indicate homework with H.W. We do this together as a class at the end of everyday. Please encourage your student to show you their planner each evening, and sign in the space provided. I spot check planners frequently for complete entries.

            Also expect a “Bauman’s Bugle” every Monday from your student. This is our class newsletter. It will outline some weekly news, reminders and upcoming information, and assignments. Vocabulary words and a spelling pretest will be on the backside.

Another way of keeping up with your student’s schoolwork and activities is through the class blog. I’ll be updating this site regularly. You can access this through the following website. http://mrsbaumansclass2015-2016.blogspot.com

While we have provided each student with most of the items needed for school this year, it would be helpful if students could bring the following materials.  If this is not possible, please tell your student to let me know.

  • A 3-ring binder for science (1” or 1 ½’ is fine)
  • Highlighter
  • Tissues (donations)
  • Sanitizing wipes (donations)
  • Hand sanitizer (donations)
  • Dry erase markers (donations)
  • Regular makers (donations)

Finally, if you have any other questions or concerns please email me at nancy.bauman@canyonsdistrict.org


“NOTICE: THE ITEMS ON THIS LIST WILL BE USED DURING THE REGULAR SCHOOL DAY. THEY MAY BE BROUGHT FROM HOME ON A VOLUNTARY BASIS, OTHERWISE, THEY WILL BE FURNISHED BY THE SCHOOL.” U.C.A. § 53A-­-12-­-202 (2)(c).
