Welcome to the Greenhouse, where everyone GROWS!!!

Who is Mrs. Longchamp?

    What a great question.  I am a wife, mother, daughter, aunt, a pet owner, friend, and teacher, to name a few.  I love each and every title that I have.  This summer I will take courses to continue on the educational journey that I am always on, too.  I also plan to spend time with my family; my husband, Anthony, our son, Aaron, and our daughter, Abigail.  We plan to spend time with our other "family members;" Spunky, our hamster, and Hannah, our cat, too.  We hope to spend some time with our cousins in Massachusetts and in New Hampshire.  We plan to swim in the Atlantic Ocean, as well as in our pool.  Don't forget to add in my days at M.B.S. this summer, getting ready for you to come in the Fall.  What an exciting summer this will be!

HOMEWORK

Please check your child's Homework Planner every night to see what they must accomplish for the evening.  I also ask that our Grown- Ups look at and sign the Planner every night to tell me that you saw that your child completed all the assignments and I will check for the accuracy the following day.  Allowing me to see how they completed their assignments is very important for my instructing the students.  I really try to have every night's homework very consistent for the students, as well as the Grown- Ups.  Please see that following schedule:

Monday:  spelling, math, 15 minutes of Homereading, practicing their poem to read fluently and also to memorize it, and any assigned work for the day

Tuesday:  spelling, math, 15 minutes of Homereading, poem (see above), and any assigned work for the day 

Wednesday:  spelling, math, 15 minutes of Homereading, poem (see above), finish Literature Circle job which is due         Thursday and any assigned work for the day

Thursday: spelling, math, 15 minutes of Homereading, poem (see above), and any assigned work for the day

Friday: write, illustrate, and color the poem for next week, 15 minutes of Homereading, and any assigned work

***Please know that there may be changes to the above schedule and they will be written in the students' individual Homework Log.***
