HOMEWORK
Homework
begins this week! I can fill you in on
details at next week’s Open House.
Please encourage and support your child by helping them set up a
routine, have supplies nearby, and reminding them to put their completed work
in their folders. Bringing home,
completing the assignment, and returning it is a first step in building
responsibility.
*Reading:
Your child will bring home a red book pouch.
They can read their “just right” books from the pouch, library books, or
favorites from home.
*Written
Homework: Monday through Thursday there
will be 1 piece of written homework. I
will rotate math, reading, and writing.
ACADEMICS
*Math
Workshop: We have started using our math books and are exploring number
concepts.
*Reading
Workshop: Our first unit of study is “Launching Reading Workshop”. We have started book shopping for just right
books, have written some short ‘book reports’, and are learning the routines of
first grade workshop.
*Writing
Workshop: We are starting a narrative
writing unit called “Small Moments”.
During this unit we will work on developing planning skills, sentence
structure, and composing a story that has a beginning, middle, and end.
