Week of January 5-9


NEW NIGHTLY HOMEWORK LOGS!
Beginning this week you will notice a new nightly reading log in your child’s Nightly Notebook. Reading is being downsized from 4 nights to 3. Please sit with your child and listen to them read Monday, Tuesday, & Wednesday. After your child has orally read, please place one check mark under each of the following headings: phrasing, accuracy, pace, retell/comprehension, & reading strategies. Please list the name of the story & sign it. You will notice a comment section. Feel free to “jot down” comments, questions, praise, or concerns you may have about your child’s reading. Hopefully the new reading log will serve several purposes: “points of interest” to be focusing in on, two-way communication with me concerning your child’s independent reading level, greater insight for implementation of new strategies for you & me. Our school district is also implementing a new "Champs" timed math facts program. Our district is requiring 4 minute timed homework practice twice a week. Each student will move up on their facts as they master each timed sheet. You will notice that your child has completed one timed side in class. Their homework will be on the reverse side. Please time your child (4 minutes), allow them to finish any unfinished problems if they run out of time, & then sign initial their paper. Thank You!
Mon: Read both books in your reading bag & log one.
Tues: Timed “Champs” math facts, read 1 hardback story & log it.
Wed: Reread your stories in your reading bag & log one.
Thur: Timed “Champs” math facts & reread hardback reader stories.
Fri: No Homework!
