We will be starting homework this week. Students have their agendas in their blue duotangs. When they are finished reading, please sign/initial, so that I know it was completed. Please let me know if the books sent home seem too difficult. We are navigating a new program in Grade 2 French Immersion called “le traitement alphabétique”, so the levels may not be exact. Please be patient as we navigate this new program. Your support and understanding are greatly appreciated! The leveled books will be changed on a weekly basis. Rather than checking homework daily, I will be collecting it at the end of the week.
