Homework assignments are typically as follows: MONDAY: Spelling - copy the List Words, Bonus Words, and Test Sentences for the current week's spelling unit TUESDAY and WEDNESDAY: Math assignment that covers what we are currently learning in class AND Language Arts - this is usually a writing/reading/comprehension assignment and also includes a 20 minute blue reading slip stapled on to Wednesday's homework paper which needs to be signed by a grown-up at home. THURSDAY: Spelling - review assignment to help you study for Friday's spelling test In addition, there are Everyday Math "Homelink" worksheets that will be sent home (not always every day). Please practice your Everyday Math facts "Fact Triangles" every night that are in the ziplock baggie. If you have lost your Fact Triangles, please ask your parents if they can get you a set of addition/subtraction flash cards from the store (or make your own at home). FINALLY, remember to read EVERY night for 20 minutes (or longer). Reading skills improve with repeated practice! Completed homework assignments are checked off on the daily homework chart that hangs in the classroom. If you are unable to complete your homework assignment for some reason, just have your parent WRITE ME A SHORT NOTE, send me an E-MAIL, or leave me a PHONE MESSAGE (206-252-8338) and I will have you turn in your homework the next day. If I do not hear from your parents, you will need to complete your homework at recess time. FAN(S) VISITING!
