Please be sure that your child completes and returns all homework assignments.  Homework is designed to reinforce a concept that has been taught.  Taking time to assist your child with their homework not only helps you become aware of what your child is learning, but communicates to them that you value their education.  Assignments are generally sent home on Fridays, attached to the newsletter.  Homework should not take more than 10-15 minutes.  If your child is becoming frustrated with a particular assignment, please send in a note so that we are aware.

In addition, we send home sight word stories.  These "books" help your child gain fluency with the sight words they are learning in class.  Please be sure to fill out the attached form and return it to school promptly.  You do not need to return the book, just the form.  There will be many different reading booklets that your child brings home, please take the time to listen to your child read each of the "stories."

One last note, please remember to send in a show and tell on your child's assigned day.  Send in a show and tell item and a word that begins with the letter of the week.  

Check your child's homework each night!
