Homework

Reading homework is given out every week by your child's Walk to Read 
teacher. It is typically given out the first school day of the week and due 
the final school day of the week. Each teacher may change this based on what 
their particular class is working on.

Math homework. There will be math homework assigned based on the concept we 
are learning and what areas need additional practice. Homework will only be 
sent home about a concept once it has been covered in class. It will 
typically be one worksheet page front to back. I try to make sure that there 
are story problems on the homework pages as it helps students to be familiar 
with them.

We will be working on Multiplication and Division facts this year. I will 
begin teaching these hopefully late October. It is important that your child 
know these. I will teach the whys of how multiplication works and what it is. 
However, knowing the facts quickly and accurately will give your child 
confidence when they are seen in story problems or a part of a multi-step 
story problem.
