• Worksheets: Please look in your child’s green folder on Monday for worksheets with concepts that have been taught in class.  The purpose of this homework is for a quick review, some practice, and a chance for parents to see what their child is learning in math.  Please complete every other problem (alternate between evens and odds so your child gets practice doing story problems AND “Vocabulary Check”/ “Test Practice” problems each week).  If your child wants to do every problem they are certainly free to do so!   Please help your child read the directions/example problems and allow them to talk about the problems as they figure out the answers. 
• NO TIMINGS THIS WEEK 

• **LANGUAGE ARTS HOMEWORK** 

We continue working on the long e using -y, and -ey word families this week. We are working on organization, open syllables, and capitalizing proper nouns. Nonfiction will continue to be our focus this week.  Sequence is the comprehension skill we will be focusing on and being able to visualize is our comprehension strategy.  

You can review the picture below for the week at a glance.

1- Daily Reading Fluency 
A Reading for All Learners (Baggy Book) leveled book will be sent home with your child DAILY. Please have your child read the book (or one story from the books that contain more than one story) at least two-three times and then sign the included form. You may supplement your child’s reading using books at home, library books, etc. to fulfill the minimum requirement of 20-30 minutes of reading per day. These are meant to be easier than your students level to work on their sight word and fluency. 

2- Reading 20 minutes per day.  (No fluency homework this week)  Track your daily reading minutes on the homework tracker sheet.  Make reading every single day a priority.  Ask your students questions using the retell rope visual below. 

It is also extremely helpful to have our student re-tell the story to you. Please also have them do this and you may use the visual aid below to assist with the steps to prompt your student if necessary. 

Re-tell the story with as much detail as possible, and in your own words, to a parent, using the guidelines described below:

4- Phonics and High Frequency Words Homework. Practice using any method of your choice to prepare for the weekly spelling test. Click here for some practice ideas: Spelling Study Activities.
