Homework is Monday through Friday. They will have spelling daily and other subjects periodically. Occasionally, a week long project is expected.
Monday - ABC order Tuesday - Sentence writing with spelling words Wednesday - Words three times each Thursday - Study for spelling test on Friday
Our AR goal each nine weeks is 10 points! A few advanced readers have higher points to attain. However, at 10 points that requires approximately two .5 books passed per week. Please help your child to keep up with this. Also, your child must read at their independent level with 85% accuracy. The AR reports keep you up with these changes. Don't hesitate to ask if you have questions. Keep reviewing the 300 words from the high frequency word list. Each student will be tested on reading and spelling each of them throughout the year. PLEASE help your child learn/memorize these facts. We have already tested on 0,1,2,3,4,5,10 multiplication facts. We are currently working on 6,7,8,9,11,12. Also, look over word problems with your child. Make sure they can tell you the operations (+,-,x,/) needed to solve their problem.
We have high expectations for all of our students at Koontz Elementary! Please feel free to ask questions between now and the EOG tests, if needed.Thanks for being part of our TEAM this year!
