Part 1 (Daily Reading Homework): your child needs to read at least 20 minutes every night. Please record what they read, how long they read for and then initial it. Thanks!
Part 2 (Writing Simple Sentences): Since the beginning of the year we have been working on understanding that a sentence:
*Tells one idea
*Begin with a capital letter
*Ends with a punctuation mark
*Needs to “make sense” and “sound right”
Tonight your student will be working on simple sentences. The instructions are easy enough: they use the words provided in the box to make complete sentences. Please have your learner explain to you why they are making the sentences they are making.
Part 3 (Minute Math): Minute Math is a daily activity. It is not due until Friday. The grade on Friday is calculated like this: 20 points per day Minute Math is done at home plus one point for every correct answer on Friday (a student who did their Minute Math every day and got 11 correct on Friday would get a grade of 91: 80 points for the days worked at home plus 11 for the right answers at school). Have your child finish as many of each day’s problems as they can with a pen in 1 minute. Mark how many they got right in 1 minute at the bottom and then initial. Then have your child finish the unanswered questions with a pencil. This needs to be done every day but does not need to be turned in until Friday. If you have any questions about minute math please contact me.
