Welcome to 5th Grade!
Hello Milbrook Elementary School, My name is Stephen Jasper and I am excited to be a new 5th grade teacher at Milbrook Elementary School. I am eager to teach Math, Science, Social Studies, and Health to Baltimore County’s finest 5th grade students! I have been working in Baltimore County for 17 years! I have worked as a 5th grade teacher, third grade teacher (At Milbrook Elementary), 4th grade teacher, GT teacher, Math Resource, Technology Integration teacher (in the computer lab), and STAT teacher. I strongly believe my experience in the various positions that I have held will allow me to meet the needs of Milbrook Elementary’ s students and community. I believe in parent, teacher, and student collaboration in order to maximize student achievement! I will do my best to send out tips, strategies, assessment and project updates to parents so that they may be able to support their child in 5th grade. I will utilize phone calls, email, Class Dojo, BCPSone, student planners, Twitter, 5th grade website, and fliers to communicate important pieces of information. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call me at (410) 887-1225 or email me at [email protected]. I am excited to support Milbrook Elementary in the current programs that are currently in place to support the needs of Milbrook Elementary School. Additionally, I am eager to bring new and exciting programs to the community!

Flash Cards: Over the past few weeks your son/daughter has been working on their fact fluency in regards to multiplication tables. They have been completing assessments in 5 minutes. Whatever facts your child was not able to get correctly, they are supposed to create a flash card for those facts and study those facts each night. Your child has been given a zip lock bag to hold the flash cards. These flash cards should return with your child day to school. This way, if there is an opportunity for your child to practice those specific facts, they can utilize the cards. They can remove the cards from their zip lock bag once they are able to correctly identify the answer three times in a row. |
