We work very hard in class, and so I do not send home a great deal of
homework. If you feel your child needs extra work, please encourage him/her
to read or write in a journal. You may also purchase a 1st grade workbook at
places like Target, Wal-Mart, Staples, etc. for additional support. Every
night, your child need to read for at least 10 minute as part of their
homework.
Written homework will be given Monday-Thursday and is a review of the skills
and concepts presented in class. Some of the assignments may need your
assistance to complete. However, I would suggest letting your child try to
complete the work on his own to encourage independence. At the end, you can
review the homework to ensure completeness. Homework is used to reinforce
skills, allow you to see what your child is doing in class, and to help make
your child responsible for returning the work the next day. I tell the kids
there are 3 parts to homework…taking it home, completing it, and returning
it the next day. You have to do all three to earn credit! I will not
assign grades to this work but I will record that it was completed and
turned in on time.
Monday and Wednesday: Math
Tuesday: phonics, fluency drills/Reading
Thursday: Theme/Writing

Thank you for making sure that your child is completing their homework!
