Homework
|
|
Homework is assigned each night Monday through Thursday night. It should take about twenty minutes to complete. Math fact cards should also be reviewed daily. Any unfinished assignments will be completed at recess. Homework should be found in your child's homework folder on the "Return to School" side. Spelling- New lists of 12 words are sent home each Day 1 in the outside sleeve of the homework folder. Be sure to spend a few minutes practicing the words at home each night. Remember the best way to practice is to write the words, but other fun ways can help keep the children interested. Try using a different medium or making it a game. We take our spelling test each Day 6. Students will be tested on the 12 words that were practiced for the week, as well as, some sentence writing skills including high frequency words that follow the standard spelling rules taught in the classroom. Math- Review math facts a few minutes each night. A worksheet will come home nightly to review any new concepts practiced in class. Reading/Language- Reinforcement activities will come during the week that will give some additional practice with what we did in class during the day. Reading- Take a few minutes to enjoy a book together each night. If you are not sure if a book is too easy or difficult for your child, open it to any page. If your child makes five mistakes while reading orally, it is too difficult.
