READING
First graders are expected to read every day after school. This can be at
home, in the car on the way to after school activities, or at extended care.
A child should read at least for 15-20 minutes per night. Of course more time
than that is also encouraged. Reading can be done alone, with help (from a
more fluent reader), or reading along together while a fluent reader reads to
the first grader.
MATH
First graders will have nightly math HOME LINKS to complete before the next
day of class. There should be a note in the Daily Reports about if there will
not be homework on a certain day.
PHONICS/WORD WALL WORK
Word Wall Work will be sent home starting in October. The first graders will
have a week to complete a packet of practice work. The WORD WALL WORDS CHECK
will be on Fridays, unless there is no school on Friday then it would be on
Thursday.
