August 14, 2011

Homework is due on Monday, August 15, 2011.  The children need to have reading for five days.  First years are a minimum of twenty minutes and seconds and thirds are thirty minutes per day.  Their log should include name of book, number of pages read, who read it, and a few sentences telling what they read.  You may include a pictures.  Time line pictures are also due tomorrow and the assignment is below.  Thank you for your assistance in your child's education.

Your child will receive their first homework packet on Monday, August 15, and all Mondays from now on.  If your child does not receive a reading paper from us, please use any lined paper showing the information listed above.  Please try to remember to sign the page.  In order to increase their vocabulary, please have them write down one new word that they have learned from their reading on the same paper.  They need to write the definition and use the word in a sentence.

We want your children to feel good about themselves and take pride in their work.  The assignments have all been reviewed in class to help them understand what is expected.  If there are any questions or additional assistance is needed, please have them see one of us.  We want them to succeed! 

Homework will go home on Mondays and must be responsibly returned by the following Monday.  You will have the weekend to work on it with your child.  Your children's education is the combined effort of student, parent, and teacher.  Your concern for your child's work will help reinforce this and they will give their best effort.

Thank you for all you do and for making this possible.
