Assignment Notebooks

Hopefully you have noticed your third grader's assignment notebook. Using an assignment notebook is a big jump in terms of their responsibility. Each day, children should fill out their assignment notebook with that day's assignment and due dates. (It will be posted on the smartboard for them to copy.) When they return home in the afternoon, they should open to the correct page (it will be marked with a sticky note so it's easy to keep track). They should read their assignment notebook before completing any homework. 

It is also important for third graders to be responsible about returning the assignment notebook each day. Third graders should put their assignment notebook in their backpack immediately after completing their homework. At the same time, they should put their homework back in their folder and their folder in their backpack. That way, the next morning they will be ready to go! 

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns regarding the assignment notebook.
