Sorry the Math Homework was weird!  I updated everything this morning!!!  Everything should be printable now.

I hope everyone noticed in the disclosure that the students are expected to pass off one monthly poem for a grade.  I send the poems home with them at the beginning of the months and post a picture of the poems on the blog.  Please start working with your child on the September poems.  They will need to recite them from memory in front of the class.  This is so good for the students!  I know they can do it.  

Also, every student must complete a Great Brain Report each month from a Chapter Book that they are reading at school/home.  The students will need to turn them into me by the end of the month, and they will also need to present them to the class.  So, they need to make sure they can read it independently and practice their report before they turn it in before the month is over.  Thank you so much for all of your support!

FYI: As a grade level, we decided to do a class sort again due to the short week.  

Tuesday- green sort 2
Sort words into vowel patterns (headings)
rounding-nearest-ten_1

Wednesday-rounding-nearest-hundred_2
ABC Sort

Thursday-Reteach_Worksheet_Addition_Properties
Speed Sort

Friday- Turn homework in with Reading Log

I have had some parents ask some questions in regard to homework.  Just so you know, the students are expected to complete all of their Words Their Way sorts each night, but they do not have to write the sorts down.  They do that in the classroom regularly.  I trust that when you (as parents)  sign the Reading Log , you are being honest.  It should just be a quick review at night.  If the students are doing that quick sort each night, it will strengthen the phonics patterns they are working on for the week.  Thank you so much for all of your help and support!

Welcome to the first week of homework this year!!!  If you need any explanation of the homework listed below for the week, go to the “Homework” tab on the blog (up above).

Thursday and Friday of last week were just great!  We have the cutest and most well-behaved group of students!  The school rules are that we cannot start homework until August 25th.  So, make sure you subscribe to the blog and get the homework off the blog next Monday (Aug. 25th).  Please make sure that your child is reading at least 20 minutes per night and you fill out and return the Reading Log on Friday.  Have a great week.
