Homework

 

Homework will be given for a week at a time.  It will go home on Tuesdays and will be due back the following Monday. 

Homework includes: reading at least 20 minutes every night, practicing word wall words, math games or practice pages, and an additional activity on reading comprehension, research or writing.

BOOK-IN-A-BAG: Each night you will take home a Book-in- a- Bag. You must read, then write down in your reading log:
  • The date
  • Title of the book
  • The number of minutes read
  • The pages you read
  • A parent/adult must sign or initial each night

 I suggest that you and your child set up a schedule for doing homework.  This way you can plan days and times to complete assignments, avoiding having to do all homework in one night.  Homework should be done in a bright area, free of distractions like T.V. or radio. A desk or table where your child can spread out and really concentrate on his/her learning is best.

Please contact me with any questions or concerns that you may have.  I will be happy to help in any way I can!
