students are expected to have their Agenda
at school every day
items are to be copied off the board
by all exactly as they are written
if there is a line beside an item,
parent signature is expected
if the item is written in red on the board, only
students who did not complete the work need to copy it
e.g. MMM INC _______
Agendas are checked every day a
student signature was required the day before - generally 4 times weekly
if the line is circled, it means
that parent signature was missing when Agenda was checked
parents are encouraged to write
notes into the Agenda, rather than on separate pieces of paper
when assignments are overdue, students are expected
to write notes to themselves
INC means incomplete
concerns about student behaviour will be noted in the
Agenda and will require parent signature
students are expected to show parents all test and
assignment results - these will be written on the board as "Show
parents ...." followed by a line for signature - if the item was not
brought home, parents are not to sign
information on routines and in class activities is
also expected to be shared with parents - these will be written on
the board as "Tell parents ..... _________" followed by a line for
signature
checking
a class set of agendas daily takes time but it is worth it
