HOMEWORK: We will be starting to send home a small home practice packet on Mondays. Students will have until Friday to turn it back into their homeroom teacher. This home practice is not graded and is meant to be extra practice for them, and will contain information to help you better understand what we are learning in class each week. The packet will consist of curriculum we have taught in class already, so students will go home with some background knowledge of the material.
Please make sure you check your child's "Travel Folder" every Friday for any communication from the school and to see their work from the week. You can keep these papers at home, and send back your child's folder and any requested paperwork on Monday.
Sign Ups
Sight Words
-------------
Sight words are considered the building blocks of teaching literacy. Sight words can simply be defined by words that young readers will use often when reading. The words are commonly used words that do not follow the normal rules of spelling or the six types of syllables. Learning to read is a big task for young learners, and mastery of sight words at a young age aids in the success of reading development.
Bridges
-------------
Bridges in Mathematics is a comprehensive PK–5 curriculum that equips teachers to fully address state standards in a rigorous, engaging, and accessible manner. Students gain a deep understanding of concepts, proficiency with key skills, and the ability to solve complex problems.
Fundations
-------------
Fundations makes learning to read fun while laying the groundwork for life‐long literacy. As a supplemental word study program that complements a core literacy program, students in grades K‐3 receive a systematic program in critical foundational skills. Fundations teaches reading, spelling, and handwriting skills in a multisensory way, appropriate for all students.
