Time is spent each day discussing homework and recording it in the agenda
book. Students are expected to copy their assignments and pack all needed
supplies into their backpack. Failure to complete homework will result
in a Work Habits check.
The following "regular" assignments can be expected each week. Students may
choose to complete them ahead of time.
Spelling and DLR - Each child has been given a spelling list covering the
first 10 weeks of school. Spelling lists and activities can be found at
www.spellingcity.com. Please note that AWC students have an additional 5
words each week found at SpellingCity. No time will be given in class to
study spelling. Students are expected to learn words on their own and be
prepared for a test each Thursday. Additionally, students are expected to be
prepared for the weekly DLR test on Thursdays.
Weekly Reader - Students will be given a lengthy Weekly Reader assignment
each Friday. It is due the following Friday and may be worked on at school
as well as at home. Additional activities and support related to the Weekly
Reader assignment can be found at www.weeklyreader.com. (refer to Senior
Edition)
Math - Eight ADD math pages will be due every Tuesday. They will be
assigned on Mondays but may be completed in advance. The concepts will be
reviewed on Tuesdays and a quiz will be given every Wednesday. Chapter tests
will be given at the end of each chapter.
Math Superstars: Math Superstar papers will be distributed on Fridays and
will be due the following Wednesday. Complete as many problems as you are
able.
Reading - Children should read a minimum of 20 minutes each night.
Online Activities - I have registered each child for VMathLive, EdHelper
memory activities, and the Online Math League. I recommend that
each child complete at least one memory game at EdHelper - (5 minutes in
length) three times each week. You will find it is a fun way to increase
memory and processing speed. VMathLive provides the opportunity to practice
math skills in a competitive and motivating way. I suggest visiting this
site 3 times a week as well. The online math league provides practice math
problem solving tests. Children will compete online in November. In
additon, you will find many other fun education links on the "Links" pages
of this site.
