1st Grade-Week 1 Parent Letter

Mr. Gantt’s Earth Science Lab Policies

1^st Grade

Dear Parents and Students,

            Over the next few months, students will be studying about the Earth and the weather around it. Students will attend Earth Science Lab 1 day a week for 1 hour and 20 minutes.

            Student achievement grades are based on weekly class work, questioning during lab investigations and homework. Effort grades will be based on participation in class and turning in homework on time.

You can get your child 2 points extra credit by doing the following:

1.     Go to http://bsmearthscience.blogspot.com/ , and make a comment on one of the 5^th grade blog posts.

2.     Follow @MrGanttTweets at www.//twitter.com/MrGanttTweets and tweet or direct message me your child’s initials and room number.

            If you have any questions, or concerns, please contact me through the main office or by email at mr.gantt@gmail.com.

Sincerely,

Mr. Gantt
