Homework and Friday Folder Information

Reading Every Night:

• The most important homework in first grade is to read for at least 15 minutes every night.

• Your child can:

  • Read to you

  • Listen to you read

  • Read with a sibling

  • Read to a pet or toy

  • Read quietly to themselves

  • All types of reading count!

Reading Log:

• We will send home a reading log at the beginning of every month.

• Every time your child reads a book, record it and color in a picture!

• Turn in the reading log at the end of every month (I will send a reminder).

• It is okay if the log is not filled by the end of the month, what matters that your student has read 15 min. per night! :)

Math Homework:

• Your child will get a Homework and Practice Journal for math.

• This will stay at home all year.

• There is one homework page per lesson.

  • Each lesson takes 1 to 3 days to finish.

  • So, your child will not have math homework every night.

  • We do not have a designated "homework folder", so put completed pages in backpacks and turn in at school.

  • We will email you at the start of each module to let you know what module we are in and to help you stay on track. :)
