ANNOUNCEMENT!!
Welcome parents and students!!
I hope we all have a wonderful 2015-2016 school year! I have created this blog so that if you may have any concerns or questions regarding homework you can find a copy here. Students will usually have spelling words and Math to take home on a weekly basis.
Sometimes, I will post videos for your child to view and for us to have class discussions afterward. The videos will be related to  topics we intend to cover or have covered in any subject area.The homework will be given  every day and is to be turned in the next morning. There are special holidays and occasions where homework will not be given or they will be given homework the next day if there is no school on any given day.
The homework is corrected but not graded and it is very important to ensure your child's success in the classroom. Also, please encourage your child to take at least thirty minutes each day to read as part of their homework. I will assign the reading pages from the Caribbean Readers Series for Grade Four.
 Please ensure that your child check the blog if he/she is absent from school or if they forgot to write down the homework during class. 
Thank you for your time and attention and you may contact me by email at anytime if you have any questions.My email is: teacherelise21@gmail.com
