Homework
1. Please practice our classroom poem.  Each student was assigned to a different part of the poem.  Please ask your child to show you which part they need to practice for tomorrow.
Mrs. McGivern’s poem: (The chorus is written at the bottom of the page) https://docs.google.com/document/d/19pSDqzYaHbyqQ2tW_XEWgmQBE0dqg_sZxyul3iCFUoc/edit?usp=sharing



2. Please read with your child every night.  This can be magazines, flyers, a home reading book, or a library book.  Comprehension is the overall goal of reading so it is important to have them discuss what they have read.  You can have them retell the story or answer who, what, where, and why questions.

3.  Please have your child complete 2 lines of each double grapheme with 5 on each line in the blue book labeled Literacy Map.  Your child will now be working in their blue notebook each day at school.  They will then do the exact same printing directly underneath at home for homework.  Please have your child print the word “homework” so that we can easily identify what was done at school and what was done at home.  Please make sure this book comes to school each day.

Monday:
oy: boy (oy that we do use at the end of English words)
oi: noise (oi that we do not use at the end of English words)
