Welcome to RDMS & 5th Grade Math Class!!
Welcome to 5th grade and to Ruth Doyle Middle School!
We have a very busy year ahead of us. I am excited to get started because we are all going to learn a lot during this school year!
Eureka Workbook & Math Binder: This year the students will have a Eureka workbook containing the lessons (problem set & homework). Your child will also bring his/her math binder which we have already divided the binder into four sections and talked about the things each section will contain. The Eureka workbook and math binder should not be left at home. They must bring both to class each day. It is very important that the students learn to keep up with their binder and keep it organized. Students are urged to take notes and copy all examples down in their workbook. After each Module test, we will clean out the binder during class. Please do not throw anything away at home. Oftentimes, what is thrown away is missing work.
Parent resources: I will add resources as I find them to the list of websites for you. Be sure to check out the "Parent Helps" page for some good information regarding how to assist your child with the new math curriculum and the websites that will provide the most help to you.
On my website, I have attached a video for each lesson I have found on Youtube. It provides math lesson tutorials. As you listen to the mini-listen, you will hear a teacher explaining the process and you see the teacher working example problems. I have also attached a homework file to each lesson. We will not have homework on each lesson, but if your child should forget his Eureka workbook at school you can find a copy.
Homework: Homework is NOT an option. Homework will be graded the next day in class. Most of the time, I will give the students a “second chance” to make corrections. It is up to your child to make those corrections when given the chance.
Remind: I have used your alert number or email to sign up you for my Remind messages. I will send out important information pertaining to my class. If you are not receiving messages, please let me know. I do not reply to messages on Remind.
