Homework Policy:

Your child will have homework each night.  Please check the folder every day for homework or messages from school.

• Spelling:  Spelling homework is located in the front of the spelling spiral.

• Reading:  Fluency is very important in first grade.  Repeated reading of the stories (from the large pink book) is necessary in order to read with no mistakes or hesitation.  By the end of the week, students should be able to read the story fluently. 

• Math:  Students must know math facts.  They will be required to practice addition and subtraction facts to 20.  We will have bi-weekly fact tests to check student progress.  Flash Cards might help with practice at home.  Other math practice worksheets will also be a part of nightly homework.
