Homework
1. Literacy Map homework books will be kept at school over the weekend and returned on Monday.  The graphemes this week were very challenging.  Due to this we will assess the quizzes and make an informed decision about which graphemes need to be reviewed this week. 


2.  Read for 20 minutes everyday.  This could be a library book, home reading or a book online.  It is beneficial to have your child read their home reading book more than once.  This helps to improve fluency.  Have your child practice “check for understanding.”  They read a few pages, stop, and retell what they have read so far.  If they can’t tell you what they have read then they need to go back and reread.

3.  We discussed verbs today in preparation for some writing we will be doing this upcoming week.  Please brainstorm and bring a list of 5-7 verbs.

4. Tell and Show:
Remember to bring your “Tell and Show” duotang to school on your assigned day and be prepared to share.  This week your child should only complete the “Bb” page, sharing something that begins with the letter B.  Please be creative, we want to be challenged when guessing your item!
