Homework will be given Monday-Thursday and is a review of the skills and 
concepts presented in class.  Some of the assignments may need your 
assistance to complete. However, I would suggest letting your child try to 
complete the work on his own to encourage independence. At the end, you can 
review the homework to ensure completeness. Homework is used to reinforce 
skills, allow you to see what your child is doing in class, and to help make 
your child responsible for returning the work the next day. I tell the kids 
there are 3 parts to homework…taking it home, completing it, and returning 
it the next day.  You have to do all three to earn credit!  I will not 
assign grades to this work but I will record that it was completed and 
turned in on time.  

Monday and Wednesday:  Math
Tuesday: SMART phonics, fluency drills
Thursday:  Theme

Because we work very hard in class, I do not send home a great deal of 
homework.  If you feel your child needs extra work, please encourage him/her 
to read or write in a journal.
