* Read 15 minutes each night 1st quarter. This will increase to 20
minutes 2nd quarter, 25 minutes 3rd quarter, and 30 minutes 4th
quarter. A reading sheet will be sent home on Friday to be filled
out and signed by a parent. Return your weekly reading sheet on
Monday with the number of minutes read for the previous week.
* Study assigned spelling list words 10 minutes each night.
* Practice addition and subtraction facts 5 minutes each night. A math
fact sheet will be sent home every other Friday to be filled out and
signed by a parent. Return your math fact sheet on Monday with the
number of minutes math facts were practiced for the previous two
weeks. A daily review will help your child maintain fact fluency.
* Your child will sometimes bring home math homework to reinforce
skills covered in class. Math homework is always due the next day.
* Your child will bring home xeroxed books throughout the year. They
are yours to keep. These are perfect to practice oral reading with
your student. Each one contains vocabulary and spelling words from
our reading series. They are written at an average reading level.
Second graders should be able to read them with some mistakes, but
without frustration.
* Homework will be sent home if daily classwork is not completed.
Unfinished work is always due the next day.
* Homework will be sent home if a child is absent and has missed an
assignment that can be completed at home. Please return work to
school when finished.
