Homework

​
Each week students will receive a Homework Paper on Monday. There is a reading log  for 5 days 20 min per night. Parents will then initial the activity as it is completed. Homework is due the last day of the week, even if it is a short week.


Parents: Please have your child read to you for 1 minute  and retell what they have read. Count the words that they said correctly and that will be how many words per minute they are reading. Our goal is 75 words per minute and 30+ words of retelling the story. Make a game of it and have fun! This is great to do on weekends and during breaks.
