Homework and Spelling List ~ Week of August 24, 2009
Parents and Students:
Below you will find our homework schedule for next week along with our spelling list. I ask that you please study the spelling words with your child each night. Ask them if they would like to "buddy study" with you .... they will know exactly what I am talking about!
In math this month, we will be working on all concepts of time. Please encourage your child to tell time on a daily basis. You could ask them in the car - or in the grocery store - wherever there is a clock present! This will help a great deal - and it will help them relate these concepts to everyday life!
I would like to thank all of our parents for your outpouring support this week. Everyone has come to school with folders signed!! WHOOHOOO!!
Please make sure that your child completes his/her homework each and every night!! This is a vital part of our school day and curriculum!!
Thanks,
Mrs. Pilkington

Each week I will post homework on this site - just as it appears in your child's daily folder - so that in the case they may forget, it will be here to access. I will also post their weekly spelling words. I encourage you to study these each night with your child. They will receive two copies of their spelling list each week ~ one will remain at school for classroom assignments and the other will be for your home. I encourage you to place this list on your refrigerator at home!
Again, if you have any questions or concerns at all - please don't hesitate to email me at jessica.pilkington@lrsd.org or call me directly at 447-5439!
I look forward to working with each and every one of you!!

Welcome to 4th Grade
Welcome Letter
Dear Parents,
I am delighted to have your child in my class this year!! 4th grade will be a year filled with many learning and life experiences. I am honored to be a part of your child’s life during this most important time. We have many fun and exciting things planned that will enhance your child’s 4th grade experience.
This year, I am super excited to announce that we will have a UALR intern in our classroom with us until March. Please welcome Mrs. Becky Smith to our classroom!
Each day your child will come home with a RED Mabelvale Mustang folder. There will be a Daily Behavior Sheet along with homework in this each night. I ask that you please review this with your child each night – initial and return. This will keep communication open between all three of us – parent, child, and teacher! In the case that your child forgets this folder I have developed a blog site that will be updated daily/weekly to keep parents informed about classroom needs & activities. Homework will also be posted along with a Spelling List in case your child forgets them at school.

In 4th grade, our behavior plan consists of a positive reward plan the “ticket system”. Each week your child will need to earn 10 tickets in order to receive the ultimate prize of “Fun Friday” at the end of the week. During “Fun Friday” students will have extra time to plan educational games and have free time. This system works very well with my students & students respond wonderfully! The ultimate goal is for students to earn at least 2 tickets each day. Tickets may be removed for inappropriate behavior but can be replaced for corrected actions. This enables the child to correct mistakes made and build on positive reinforcement.
I am very excited about meeting each and every one of you this year. I am available through email and voicemail – so please don’t hesitate to contact me. My email address is: jessica.pilkington@lrsd.org and my direct classroom phone number is : 447-5439.
Here’s to a very successful year!!
Mrs. Jessica Pilkington
