Every student in my 5th grade classroom will be receiving a F.R.O.G.
binder 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. Binder. Please read this section carefully as we will be
using the F.R.O.G. Binder all year long. The pictures and
descriptions below are what the binder will come with at the
beginning of the school year. The students will be allowed to place
the folders they bring into the binder, since they will need a
folder for each subject in fifth grade. If needed, we will 3 hole
punch their folders in order to insert them into the binder. These
binders will be used every single day, and it is the each student's
responsibility to take care of the F.R.O.G. binder, not the
parents'.
Please note: The school will be providing one binder for each student in
our classroom. If the binder is lost or ruined,
the school
will not be furnishing another binder.

Data Section |
|
In this section, each student
will be keeping track of different forms of data throughout
the school year. They will be tracking their attendance,
behavior, SSP results, spelling results, Accelerated Reader
progress, and other results throughout the school year. This
section will allow the parents to see how their child is
doing, and it will allow the student to see the progress they
are making in class. Click here
for copies of the forms I use in this section. |

Homework Folder |
 |
This folder will contain your child’s homework for each night.
After your child completes his/her homework, please be sure
that he/she places it back into his/her homework folder.
This should be the child’s responsibility, not yours!

The back cover of
the binder covers the rules of the F.R.O.G. Binders. These
rules will be enforced. The F.R.O.G. Binders have to last ALL
