HOMEWORK...

Hello families!  As we begin to get into our homework routines, please know the guideline for first graders is about ten minutes a night.  If homework is greatly exceeding the ten minute guideline, please have your child stop. Write me a note in the agenda so I can help at school.  Homework is meant to reinforce our lessons at school, not cause frustration.  It is my goal that these assignments are meaningful and aid in the mastery of first grade skills.  

Tomorrow night your child will bring home a take home reader.  Please have your child read the book to you and then sign the cover.  For every signature your child gets, he/she will earn a penny.  I tell the kids that they can even read to their pets!!  HAPPY READING!!
