F.R.O.G. Folders

     Every student in my 5th grade classroom will be receiving a F.R.O.G. folder the first week of school. F.R.O.G. stands for Fully Responsible, Organized, & Growing. Listed below you will find a description of each section in the F.R.O.G. Folder. Please read this section carefully as we will be using the F.R.O.G. Folder all year long. The pictures and descriptions below are what the folder will come with at the beginning of the school year. The students will be allowed to place the folder into their Data Binder. These folders will be used every single day, and it is the each student's responsibility to take care of the F.R.O.G. folder, not the parents'.
