Homework

    Homework Expectations 


    1. At the beginning of each week, your child will bring home work in their homework duotang that is to be completed and returned by Thursday. This homework will focus on the concepts that are being taught in class.
    2. Students are expected to read for 10-15 minutes each night. They can choose books from the Raz-Kids reading program or books from home. 
    Word Wall Words
    At home, your child should be practising their word wall words.  They need to know how to spell these words and they must read them automatically.  The possiblities of ways to work with these words are only limited by your imagination:
    • use a whiteboard
    • use a keyboard
    • give your child clues (I am the opposite of....I rhyme with....I have a long vowel...etc)
    • play Scrabble or Banana Gram
    • write them out in sand
    • make sentences with the letters
    • write a paragraph with the words
