Homework

Look over the homework checklist. Every evening you will need to listen to someone read a book and or read your guided reading book. Parents and Student; please initial your homework checklist every evening so I know that you have completed all your homework. Any box with an X in the middle indicates no homework in that section. 

Reading: 

Your child will bring home a plastic envelope containing a book and a log to record the book and your signature. Reviewing it at home is essential to creating good literacy habits. Read the book together, talk about what is happening in the story, can you relate to anything in the story to what your child already knows? Ask your child how he/she would change the ending. This is a great way to build a bridge between our classroom and home. 

 Math:

A few nights a week your child will have a Math homework paper to complete. This is a review of what was taught in school that day. 

Read a story to your child: 

Please choose a picture book, or good read aloud chapter book to read to your child every night. One of the key elements to promote literacy is read aloud time. Encourage your son/daughter to follow along with the text while using the pictures as well. Make predictions, talk about the events, and ask your child many questions about the story.
