Homework Reminders: *Homework is given only on Monday, Tuesday, & Thursday nights. It will be placed in your child's daily folder to be completed that night and returned the next day. It is given to provide practice & reinforce the skills taught. It also helps to develop responsibility. *Library books are due each Monday(You must bring one back to get another) *Please sign the homework/achievement chart each night and return it in the folder provided with the completed homework. *Reading homework is a daily activity. Remember to record all books read on the reading log in your child's folder. Reading with your child will help them become better readers! This is one of the most important things you can do to help improve your child's reading skills! Let your child retell the story back to you and ask them questions to help develop their comprehension skills. Discuss the vocabulary or any unknown words in the story. *Please continue to practice bus/lunch numbers, ABC recognition, number recognition 0-10, and writing first name. *Mini-books are being sent home for you to read and enjoy with your child. These books are yours to keep; you can record them on the reading log too! *Guided reading books will be sent home and should be returned in the Ziploc with the signed card after your child has read the book with you. *Writing journals should be returned each day-please do not write for your child but let them write or draw their own thoughts. :) If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment to check on your child's progress please feel free to email, send me a note, or you may call me after 3 PM at 653-3791. Thanks for your continued support of our enducational endeavors! We appreciate all you do! Sincerely, Mrs. Barkley and Ms. Lewis
