What are we learning in class?

Pro tip:  If you are trying to access your child's Google Classroom, you must first sign out of your account in the top right-hand corner of Google or use "incognito" mode for your child to access his/her account!  

(You can switch Google accounts very easily by clicking on your account in the top corner, causing a drop-down menu to appear, and clicking on your child's name.)  

If you do NOT, you will not access your child's Google Classroom (GC)!  Please see the very bottom of this page!

What can I do to practice at home?

• Practice the current Spelling pattern/s - We have a spelling test at the end of each skill week!  Only the spelling pattern will go home--there will be no spelling list to go home! 

• Read and/or listen to our weekly reading story - it is posted in Google Classroom (GC), or it can be searched on the HMH ED platform in the Elementary tab in Classlink.  We have a reading quiz each week! 

• Practice reading skills in I-Ready 

• Read (free-choice) for at least 20 minutes EACH night!  This will help with increasing vocabulary, spelling, and overall comprehension.
