In French class we have a Math sheet daily,
except on weekends and holidays. This sheet is a reinforcement of
what we are doing in class and is written in English so that your child
may see the English terminology for the
French Math vocabulary he or she has learned in class.
Homework is a key component to success in first grade. Reading homework
is dated and sent home Monday-Thursday. On Monday the list of
reading vocabulary words and the list of weekly spelling words are sent
home. These lists are to be kept at home and practiced daily. Sentences with
vocabulary words will be sent home on Monday to be reviewed
each night.
Spelling assignments are given Monday-Wednesday. On Thursday the
students study words for the Friday Spelling test. AR Reading
books are sent home to be read and recorded. Thank you so much for
helping at home.
Later we are going to
incorporate dictation sentences into the weekly spelling
test. The five dictation sentences will be sent home on
Monday to be practiced daily. On Friday the students will be
required to write two sentences chosen by the teacher.
Correct capitalization, punctuation, and spelling of each
word will be assessed on the test. One grade will be given for
the individual spelling words and one grade for the
dictation sentences. |
