Weekly Homework 

Homework due EVERY Tuesday. 

Fluency: Fluency  

Reading Challenge: It’s the March challenge, again. Please make sure students are reading every day for at least 20 minutes. Please use the planner or email to communicate any reading success at home. Kids love to hear you share positive success’ at home with me.

You will notice that the students have three library books this week. From this day forward, students will check out three books. 

Math IXL: Attached to the reading challenge, you will find a math worksheet. As first-graders, students must be able to complete this work independently. You may read the directions if needed to your child. If you find your child struggling, please review those skills. 

Sneak Peek to our Academic Week 

Word Work: New sorts this week. Some students will be staying on the same sort for two weeks. Don’t be surprised if you see the same sort written in their planner next week. 

Reading: We are working on sequencing a story, author’s purpose, and looking at quotation marks to change our voice. 

Writing/Grammar: We have come along with common and proper nouns. We are learning when to use periods, question marks, and exclamation marks. We will soon focus on adjectives.  We will be doing a project next week about adjectives. If you are able to attend our event on March 18th, I will ask that you add three more adjectives to their self-portraits.

We are working on checking a few things in our sentences such as capital letter, spaces between words, and punctuation marks at the end. 

Math:  We are reviewing math skills before our next math test. Please practice telling time to the hour and half-hour, simple adding and subtracting, finding the addend to an equation, finding the rule for skip counting, and measurement to the nearest inch.

Religion: We continue learning about fasting, almsgiving, and prayer. We will be attending stations of the cross every Wednesday at 2:15.

Science: We will be studying why flowers bloom. Students will be able to show you on March 18th!
