Homework will begin September 28th. It will be sent home every Thursday in the Green Thursday Folders. Starting homework at the end of September allows students to settle into school and to practice homework procedures so they know what to do at home. Each week we will practicing spelling patterns, math facts and reading.
Spelling Patterns:
Students will receive a weekly word list. This will include words with the spelling pattern we are learning for that week. Inside the Communication Binders, there are stories which go along with the spelling pattern of the week. There are directions for the homework in the Binders. Students will take a weekly quiz on the spelling pattern of the week. They will receive credit if they use the spelling pattern correctly because we are checking to see if they are able to use the pattern we have been practicing. This homework should take no more than 5-7 minutes.
Reading:
Read to your child or with your child each night for 10 minutes. Record the book titles in your agenda.
Math facts:
Students will receive math fact cards to keep in their zipper pencil pouches. Please do not write on the flash cards. These are for students to use for practice each night. In the Binder you will find ideas of math games to play.
You can also have your child go on xtramath.org to practice knowing their facts quickly. The login information can be found in the Binder and on our website.
Thank you for your support in helping our students become lifelong learners! As always, if you have any questions please get in touch with your classroom teacher.
