Math homework will be marked with HW. Reading will also be a part of our daily homework, including an occasional reader's response. Homework is an important review and reinforcement of the day's work. Please provide a quiet space and encourage your child to do their best work. Also, review and SIGN your child's homework.
Remember to always pick "good- fit" books to read! It is easy to do:
I PICK
- I choose a book
- Purpose- Why do I want to read it?
- Interest- Am I interested in it?
- Comprehend- Am I understanding what I am reading?
- Know- I know most of the words
Many Parents Ask:
How can I help my child become a better reader?
Continue to read to him every day and expose him to the language of books. Have him read to you. If he makes a mistake, simply tell him the correct word and let him move on. This increases enjoyment and fluency.
To increase comprehension, talk about the story after you've read it.

a calendar to record how you filled someone's bucket, a bucket and place stones inside to keep track or a journal to write about what you did!
