This week, students must read and complete their log and study their
review list for a spelling test on Wednesday. No homelinks or response
activities will come home this week.
      
     Homework should not be a stressful time for your child or your family. 
Make it a family event. Tun off the T.V. Have your child sit in a 
comfortable, well-lit place. If you have other school-aged children, consider 
having one set homework time for everyone. Perhaps that is the time when 
parents read or do paperwork, as well. Let your child know that homework is a 
priority and will be in grades to come. 
     
     If homework is frustrating or your child refuses to cooperate at the 
designated homework time, put the homework, unfinished, into their folder. 
They will need to share with me why it is not done when they get to school. 
If homework is not complete, children need to complete it during snack time 
or during one of our "game and movement" breaks. Children quickly learn that 
it is much easier to get it done at home, with the help of a parent!

Here are some great questions for "sparking" a conversation about school!

What books did you read today? Which was your favorite? Why?

Did you share at the morning meeting? What did you tell the class?

What class job do you have this week? What are your responsibilities?

Who did you play with at recess? What did you do?

What did you do at gym, art, media, music?

What math games did you play?

Who was your reading partner, math buddy?

Or, would you like to view and optionally restore one of these previous versions?
