Wow!
What a great first two days we had in Language Arts. Unfortunately our fast boat to China was abruptly halted. I hope you are staying safe with your families. We will definitely hit the ground running on Friday when we return to school. The first few weeks of school I will be collecting much data from your child. I will be taking writing samples, reading diagnostic tests and looking at your child's standardized testing data all the way back from fourth grade. The information that I will be collecting will be pertinent as it will allow me to diagnose any strengths or weaknesses, ultimately guiding my instruction for your child. I will be reviewing my classroom expectations on a daily basis. I will be firm in my expectations regarding behavior, academics, homework and organizational skills. Your child will be in training throughout this period so if it "seems" like I am being tough, I probably am. My purpose is to guide your child in establishing great habits day one, which will help them be successful throughout their three years at Julia Landon College Preparatory and Leadership Academy. It also creates a very efficient classroom environment wherein our academic learning is maximized. I have truly enjoyed getting to know your children over the first two days. I want to congratulate those students whom have already created a user id and password for their Engrade account. Period 1 had 2 students as of this posting. Period 2 had 5 students, Period 3 came out on top with 7 students. Period 4 had 4, and Period 6 had 6. Just a friendly reminder: please access my blog spot via the Julia Landon website. Please allow me a 24 to 48 hour grace period in responding to your emails or Engrade messages.
I can't wait to get back to school! :) Mrs. Flynn
