Teacher Evaluation
Hello!!
A very important piece of teacher reflection is parent
evaluation. Information about the
classroom teacher, provided by parents, is viewed by the teacher and the
administration. It assists the teacher
in self-reflection and gives the principal information for the official teacher
evaluation that he/she completes.
Please use the following address to complete the
survey. You will have to copy and paste the address to your browser. This survey is anonymous.
A paper will be sent home next Monday (Oct. 28) asking if you have
completed the survey. Please fill it out
and return it. Thank you in advance for
your help.

Fun Rewards
Today we had the privilege of hearing a past student of mine read us a story. She earned this reward in her third grade class. My students also have the opportunity to earn this as a reward through the Accelerated Reading Program. We will begin AR soon. Students earn points for reading books and taking tests on them. Rewards and prizes are given along the way. It's a fun reading incentive for the class.
Library Field Trip
Last Wednesday, the entire second grade walked to the Canyon Ridge High School Library. Luckily the weather was fairly cooperative for us!!

2nd Grade CRHS Library Field Trip
Mrs. Johnson (formerly Mrs. Lancaster) is the CRHS librarian. Prior to accepting that position, she was a teacher at Perrine. She is very kind to invite the second grade back each year.
The students learned about the two different types of books: fiction and nonfiction. They learned how to find a fiction book in the library using the first three letters of the author's last name. They learned how nonfiction books are housed by categories. They were able to look around the library and see what it had to offer. The students were very engaged and enjoyed themselves. Mrs. Johnson did a great job of making it fun for them.

The First Month...
We have had a very successful start to our school year. The students have jumped back into school and done very well.
Our IRI scores were excellent. Reading groups have been formed to individualize the learning for the students in our class.
We have been having fun getting to know each other. We have a wonderful class. I truly mean that. They are so fun and full of good energy. I am excited to greet them each day.
Most of the kids and parents have caught onto homework policies. If you are unsure, please view the homework policy tab at the top of the page.
Thanks so much for trusting me and Perrine Elementary with your children. I have really enjoyed them so far and I am looking forward to what's to come!!
