Anyway….I will post them Thursday., so please note that if your student didn’t make 90% (Mastery) they need to continue to work on subtracting by 1,2, and 3 at home with the goal to reach mastery.
There are 5 Components to Homework this week.
1. My Math Homework Worksheets: Chapter 9 Lessons 9-10 and Chapter 10 Lesson 1
2. Math Timings
3. Reading 20-3o minutes/day
4. Timed Fluency Passages
5. Spelling/Vocabulary Words
1. Math Homework:
Monday Lesson Lesson 9: Halves
Tuesday Lesson 10: Quarters and Fourths
Wednesday Lesson : Review Lesson 9 and 10
Thursday Lesson 1: Cubes and Prisms
1. Worksheets: PLEASE COMPLETE EVERY PROBLEM since there are only a few 2-4/ assignnment and the kids need the practice. Please check your child’s answers for accuracy.
2. Fluency Timings: This week, we will be REVIEWING Make a Ten. I am WATCHING for MASTERY from now on. The target goal in first grade is to finish 22/25 (OR 18/20) problems correctly in 1 minute. PLEASE TIME YOUR STUDENT FOR 1 MINUTE ONLY EACH DAY. Your student NEEDS TO GET accustomed to only having only 1 minute to complete the timing !!!!
Have your student place their math timing on the sheet protector in their homework folder to practice on M-W, then on Thursday, have them use a pencil and to complete the timing. They should be able to complete the entire page in that on minute to be on target.
I will test for MASTERY each Friday. The following students achieved mastery (90%) on “Subtraction by 1, 2, or 3.”
If you DO NOT see your student’s name below, THEY DID NOT MEET THE STANDARD AND NEED MORE PRACTICE TO MEET 1ST GRADE END OF YEAR GOALS.
I Love to read!
3. Reading 20 minutes/5 days or a total of 100 minutes/week.
YOU CAN USE ANY TIME SPENT ON READING THE FLUENCY PASSAGE WITH YOUR STUDENT TOWARDS YOUR 100 WEEKLY MINUTES.
***Reading comprehension strategy: Help your child read a story and think of a title for it.
Then ask your child to RETELL the STORY IN THEIR OWN WORDS. The DETAILS need to be IN ORDER from the story.UNDERSTANDING what you are reading is just as important as how fast you read (FLUENCY)!!!
PLEASE use these Re-Tell Ropes whenever you are reading with your student checking for understanding. THIS HELPS STUDENTS PREPARE FOR OUR LANGUAGE ARTS WORK ON AND DIBELS TEST COMPREHENSION.
4. Reading Fluency Passages:
- Please follow the steps below EXACTLY for greater success
- Have your student go through and HIGHLIGHT EVERY WORD THEY KNOW.
- ****Talk about any of the other words they didn’t know OR were unsure of. Look for words within words like before, stand. Look for words with vowel teams like sail, goat, seat and see. Look for consonant digraphs like th, sh, wh , and th. Look for vowel digraphs like oi, and oy. Look for CVCe words like, like and bike, .
- Read the entire passage with your student. They should be pointing to/ tracking each word as you are reading together. They should also be reading ALL the words that they HIGHLIGHTED.
- Lastly, talk about all the fun, cool, interesting facts from the passage. There will be many!!!
- You may count this time towards your reading minutes for the day as it is more lengthy AND if done the right fun for your student!
- Time your student for 1 minute and see how far they get each day. Circle the last word they read each night.
