Homework

 Dear Parents, 

The first homework packet will be sent home next Monday the 23rd.

You will find a packet in your child's Take Home Folder that includes:

A Weekly Reading Log
Please read with your child every night, even if it is only for 5 minutes. Take turns reading.

A Math Page
Follow the directions. Many of these sheets include directions to games/activities, which do not get sent back to school. If this is the case, please record somewhere on the sheet that the game/activity has been completed.

A Lively Letter Page
The letter character on the front side should be colored with care. Then write 3 words beginning with the targeted letter, and draw a picture to match. Your child should be writing and sketching with a pencil and coloring with crayons or colored pencils.

Handwriting Pages
In the classroom we say, "trace and try.” Trace a black letter, then try it, then trace, then try... until the pages are complete. The targeted letters should be written with your child's best effort in pencil.

Homework will be due back to school every Friday. Feel free to send an email if there are any questions.

Happy Homework, 
Mrs. Newman
