Homework

Reading:

Each week students are required to read for 100 minutes.  Reading logs will be due each Monday.  I recommend reading Monday-Friday for 20 minutes each night.  In addition to reading, students will have a reading comprehension sheet to complete weekly.  If you have any questions about reading please conference with Mrs. Lenert.

Math: 

Students will have a worksheet to complete nightly Mon-Thur over the skills that were taught and practiced in class.   Please note that some of the strategies that your child will be using are different from the strategies that you may have been taught to use, so it may be confusing to you, however the students have a better understanding of the concept and can complete the assignments independently.  They will have their math journal to use as a resource when new concepts are taught.  I will also send home a packet for parents and students to use as we start each unit.  This packet will discuss the different strategies being taught.  This will be the same information that is on the Pearson Success Website.  We discuss homework answers each day so that students have immediate feedback.  Please be sure that your child's homework is complete and that they are ready to discuss.

Science:  

Students will have vocabulary to study every week.  They will have a vocabulary test at the end of the week.  Please conference with Miss Anderson if you have any questions.
