HomeworkReading
Of course, reading is the most important part of our homework! All of us should be reading 20 minutes a night, 5 nights a week. Please print off the
Sort and Reading Log to record how many minutes your child read each night. Please sign and return it on Friday.
Math
This week’s math homework will be completed on www.Prodigygame.com There are 4 assignments on rounding, and will easily be completed over 4 nights for about 15 minutes on the program. If you have not connected to our class, please do so.
Spelling
We are starting spelling this week for the first time. Our class will be working on long a sounds with the /ai/ and /ay/ patterns. Please print off this sort:
yellow sort 19
The students will use this sort to practice the indicated patterns. Quest has asked us to have the students type their spelling word sort each night, but I haven’t trained the students yet, so they are just sorting them this week. They will be expected to type them next week.
Monday-Sort words by indicated patterns ( /ai/, /ay/, and /oddballs/-all other patterns)
Tuesday-ABC Sort (Sort the words by initial letters.)
Wednesday- Speed Sort (Sort the words as quickly as they can.)
Thursday-Glue sort (Glue the words down in the indicated vowel pattern.)
**Please make a note on the
Sort and Reading Log that a sort was done each night.**
