  MORE INFORMATION ABOUT MATH FACTS TESTS CAN BE FOUND IN READING BELOW.

MATH
When your child's math homework comes home, we have ALWAYS gone 
over how to do it in class.  We will almost always do several like the ones 
on your paper on our dry erase boards, and then do 1 on the actual homework 
page, so they will know what to do, and so that you can see an example.

MATH  FACTS  TEST

This is a timed test. That is the only way to test for mastery.  If they have 
all the time that they need, and can add on their fingers, they have 
not "learned" their math facts.  Knowing many of them without thinking will 
make the math that they do daily much easier. There will be good payoff for 
the effort used in learning these facts.  We practice several days a week on 
their dry erase boards in class.

Our Tests will continue to be on Wednesday. We will add the next number each 
week. Example - week 1 is +0, week 2 is +1,week 3 is +2 etc.We will do throgh 
9 in addition before we start subtraction. Please do some fast drill with 
your child. If your child misses more than 2, he/she has not adequately 
mastered their math facts.

SAXON PHONICS
We will have Phonics homework every night as a general rule.  Every 10th 
lesson is an Assessment that has no homework side.  We will have math 
homework each night.  It will reinforce what we have done in class that 
day.

SPELLING & VOCABULARY TESTS
Spelling words and the Reading/Vocabulary words will be on the website 
usually by Wednesday night for the following week.  Spelling tests will be on 
Thursday and Vocabulary tests are on Friday each week.Early in the year, your 
child will only need to recognize the correct word in a choice of 3 words. 
Later in the year, they will need to be able to choose the correct word to go 
in a sentence.

SCIENCE & SOCIAL STUDIES
When we are at the end of some of our Science or Social Studies Unit, your 
child will bring their book home to study for the test.  I will send a note 
prior to that to let you know when the test is, and that the books will be 
coming 
home.

Thanks for all your help at home to make your child successful.
