While You Were Out
By Joy

Hi Robin,

Whenever one of my third graders are out, I always leave a red folder on his/her desk that says: While you were out...
Inside the folder are two pockets: to be completed and completed work. I record all of the assignments for the child on a notepaper. Children are expected to return the folder to me within 2 days. Any work turned in after that receives a penalty.

I agree with Traci who was the last post. She said that she sends the reading book & assignments home. I have also copied other students notes for the absent child to refer to. If you have audio tapes available, I would suggest that you allow the child to listen to the audio tapes. I sure hope this helps!

Happy Teaching!
