Save the Date

Some of these events are soon, and some of them are not, but I'd like you to have a heads up so that we can have a great turn out! I look forward to seeing you at some of these!

Publix Math Night
5-7pm October 25th

Come have “SUM” fun while you shop for groceries! Let your child use their real world math skills at the different departments at Publix. There will be teachers from Teasley at each station to support this authentic application of learning skills.

Tiger Trot
November 18th

Put on your running shoes and collect your pledges! It’s time for the Tiger Trot. Students will be asking for donations for their participation in this event. Monies collected will go towards the PAWS foundation to support teacher materials in the classroom.

Barnes and Noble Night
4- 7pm December 8th

Come to Barnes and Noble night to complete your shopping list while your child enjoys story time with a Teasley Teacher. Purchases are also wrapped on site by the teachers. We look forward to seeing you!

Grading Scale

The grading scale for 4th grade and beyond is as follows:

(A) 90-100

(B) 80-89

(D) 70-73

(F) 69 and below

Please remember to check ParentVUE throughout the week, for updated grades, comments, missing assignments, etc. In the past, your child has been assessed on a standards based report card. In fourth grade, students receive percentages on assignments. These scores are averaged to determine your child's grades. Please be aware there there is no correlation between the standards based report card and the traditional scale. Non-academic factors affect grades, such as participation, attendance, late work, ability to follow and decipher directions, precision to detail, etc. The grades that students receive, starting in 4th grade, will depend upon the degree to which they meet the communicated expectations.

Behavior Colors

In my class, students have the opportunity to move their clips up and down through out the day. All students start on Green, and I consider this positive behavior. Anything green and above, is great behavior and students are rewarded with megabucks which they can use to purchase certain cards. These cards include fun extra activities like being able to take your shoes off in class. Anything below a green is not encouraged, as it means students are needing to be redirected more then once throughout the day. The colors are in the following order.

Pink - Super Student

Purple - Great Job

Blue - Good Choices

Green - Ready to Learn (Students start here)

Yellow - Think About It

Orange - Teacher's Choice

Red - Parent Contact
