Welcome to Mrs. Brown’s 4th Grade Class!

My name is Kelly Brown and I have been teaching at Schick Elementary for 5 years. Most of that time was spent in 5th grade. I look forward to a new adventure in 4th grade this year. I received my Bachelor’s Degree from Lycoming College and I am currently working on my Master’s Degree at Lock Haven University. When I am not working on activities and plans for school, I spend all my spare time playing with and chasing around my children, Miles (6) and Norah (3). My husband, Eric, is also a teacher. He teaches Physics, Math, and STEM at Montgomery Area School District. Some of my most important qualities are being patient, caring, kind, adventurous, and hard-working. I strive to give my students the best education they can possibly have and work hard to get each of them actively engaged in the learning process. Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, biking, kayaking, playing games, and trying new things.

Donald E. Schick Elementary SchoolExt. 1147Work Phone: (570) 326-3554
Biography

I have taught art in Florida for thirteen years. I believe that Art is the first language of children and that through Art children can express themselves, explore, create, and problem solve. Art is a natural extension of the world around them and children have a natural curiosity about art. In my art classes, even the youngest children will learn about the world around through art. They will learn about the elements of design including color, texture, line, shape, form, value, and space. They will also learn about the principles of design which include: contrast, balance, unity movement, pattern, emphasis, and rhythm. Math, science, and social studies will be integrated into their lesson so that your child will understand that everything they learn about is connected to other things. I look forward to studying the world of art with your child.

If you have any questions about the art program at D.E. Schick Elementary, please don’t hesitate to contact me at 570-326-3554 ext 1147, or at scomini@ltsd.k12.pa.us

About Me:

I am a Pittsburgh native who  has 13 years of experience in Art Education. I have worked in all areas in Art for the Palm Beach County School system, but I am very happy to be working at the elementary level again, which is my favorite place to teach.  I had gotten my B.A. in Art at California University of Pennsylvania, and received masters degree in Multicultural Education from Florida Atlantic University. During my time teaching in Florida, I had taught Art at an International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program in West Palm Beach.

I  enjoy swimming, biking, painting, ceramics, reading and watching Steeler games with my family.

Biography
These webpages have been developed as another link between school and home.  I hope these resources are helpful to both students and parents.
I would be happy to communicate with parents through email.  Please feel free to send me an email message.  I will do my best to respond in a timely manner.

Welcome Information

Welcome to 3rd Grade!  Third grade is such an exciting year in your child’s education, and I am thrilled to be a part of it!  J  I look forward to getting to work with you and your child as the year progresses.  I have outlined a few important things that may answer some of the questions you have.

Homework

I will be giving homework Monday-Thursday.  Students will write their homework assignments in their agendas each morning, and they will bring their homework home in their homework folders.  Please sign your child’s agenda every night to indicate that you have seen the assignments.  Because homework is for practicing and reinforcing skills, I do not expect every homework assignment to be perfect!  I do, however, expect the students to apply their best efforts.  J

  • Completed homework = 2 points
  • Partially completed homework, or late homework = 1 point
  • * No homework = 0 points

Behavior Management

I will be using Class Dojo to track student behaviors throughout the school year.  This is a wonderful app that allows me to track behaviors, both positive and negative, quickly and easily throughout the day.  “Dojo Points” will be awarded and students will be able to cash in on their points for various rewards at the end of the week. Parents/Guardians also have the ability to monitor their child’s behaviors.  Please be on the lookout for the information on how to access this awesome feature!

We will also be building “Compliment Chains!”  Each time that the class receives a compliment, I will add a paperclip to the chain.  (For example: Another teacher compliments us on how quietly we walk in the hallway.)  When the chain reaches a certain length, I will treat the students to a special celebration, art project, or chunk of “student choice” time.

Recess

We have recess every day after lunch.  Please keep an eye on the weather and make sure your child is dressed appropriately!  Jackets are mandatory during cold temperatures.

Snack  

This year we have a later lunch (12:15).  I allow the kids to eat a mid-morning snack while they complete their independent work.  If you would like to send a snack for your child, please send something that he/she can keep in their desk until snack time.  (Please do not send candy or chewing gum!)  I usually try to have some extra snacks in the classroom in case someone forgets a snack, but I do rely on donations to keep these “extras” on hand.  J

Student Absences

When your child is absent, please call the absentee line to report your child’s absence.  Then please follow-up with a written excuse including the date and the reason for the absence.

Handy Helpers/Parent Volunteers

I love to use family volunteers to help us execute special projects, holiday crafts, etc.   If you’re interested in helping out, please fill out the PTO letter—we’d love to have you!

If you have any questions or would just like to talk to me, please email me at kdunlap@loyalsocklancers.org or call at 570-326-3554.   I believe that parent-teacher communication is crucial to your child’s success—we’re a team!  J

Thank you in advance for helping us to enjoy a fantastic year in 3rd grade!  

Do I Need to Buy Supplies

Most of the supplies we will need for Third Grade have been delivered to our classroom.
We have everything from crayons to notebooks, and art supplies to dry erase markers.

Back to school shopping can be so much fun, but please keep these ideas in mind when browsing all those goodies.
Mechanical pencils create lots of problems in our classroom. Please keep them at home to complete homework assignments.
Our desks are not big enough to accommodate extra binders, folders, trapper-keepers, and notebooks. Kiddos won’t need them.
Parents only need to provide their child with a backpack, clean washcloth or sock, and a healthy snack for each day.

Biography

Welcome! Take a closer look at my classroom as well as learn ways to help your child succeed in kindergarten!

About me

I am a full-day kindergarten teacher at Donald E. Schick Elementary School in the Loyalsock Township School District, Williamsport, PA.  I have been teaching kindergarten for 21 years. I received my B.S. in Early Childhood and Elementary Education at Penn State University and my M.S. in Education at Wilkes University. I live in Rose Valley and I have three children–Natalie, age 17, Owen, age 16, and Jace, age 11. I like to work out, attend my kids’ sporting events, and spend time with friends and family.  I love Penn State, go Nittany Lions!, the color red, and dark chocolate! Yum, yum!

 

Kindergarten Report Card: Our kindergarten report card is sent home in November, March, and June.  We meet with parents for a parent/teacher conference in November and March.

Language Arts: We use the Storytown Reading Series published by Houghton Mifflin.  This is a comprehensive program that includes oral language, phonics, phonemic awareness, comprehension, and writing components. We support this with Writing Workshop, Fundations,  and guided reading.

Kidwriting: We use our own variation of the Kid Writing program by Eileen Feldgus.  This is a program in which we encourage children to use their sounds and stretch out words that they hear.  We do not expect it to be correct.  We call that “Adult Writing,” which we write under their writing.  For more information about Kid Writing you can go to the following link:http://kidwriting.homestead.com/questions.html

Everyday Math: We use the Everyday Mathematics 4 curriculum from the University of Chicago. It offers a spiral curriculum which allows the children to practice each skill many times in order to master it.

Social Studies & Science: We use hands-on, investigative, and inquiry-based curriculum for these subjects.  In social studies, we will be learning how to be good citizens, expanding our knowledge of history and holidays, and exploring the world around us through various units during the school year.  We utilize the Fusion Science curriculum which provides an interactive textbook, as well as, hands on activities and technology based learning.

High Frequency Words

Kindergarten students are responsible for recognizing 54 high frequency words.  The words are introduced during the nine themes throughout the school year. High Frequency Words

Biography

Welcome to my Kindergarten website!  This is my thirteenth year here at Schick and I truly love every minute of teaching young children.  Our days are filled with learning and hard work as the students blossom into readers, writers, and thinkers.

Our reading curriculum is jam packed with rich literacy experiences.  We use the Harcourt, Story Town series in conjunction with Guided Reading and Fundations Phonics.  The use of these programs helps us to provide effective reading instruction at each student’s developmental level.  We also use the a school wide reading program to build a love of reading in our students through successful independent reading.

Writing is a big step in Kindergarten.  During the year we work on students mastering writing a story.  Students will learn to write and tell a story across three or more pages.

Through the use of Everyday Mathematics our Kindergarteners are exposed to many hands on math experiences.  Everyday Mathematics uses a spiral curriculum that ensures students are frequently reviewing and practicing skills.  The program uses activities and games to create a fun filled learning environment.

Throughout the year we will use Fusion Science.  Each student has a workbook with lessons pages they can write one.  Students will bring home these colorful lesson pages to share with you after we complete each lesson.  Many experiments and online activities add to the fun and excitement of Science.  Your child is sure to love it!

Our days are packed with activities and all students are sure to find something in our day that they truly love.
