Homework this Week
Math worksheet packet and Language arts packet. **All homework is due on Friday.
Reading each night is also a part of the homework. Students are to read at least 15 minutes every night and write the book read on the reading log. I will send home books if a child needs them. Otherwise they can read books from home or the library.
Reading Log Goals– Each time a student reads 60 minutes they earn a star. For every 5 stars, the student goes to the Treasure box.
Correcting Work– Please look over papers in the Monday folder. It is important to have your student correct work that has the “Correct and return” note on it. Thank you for your help.
