We will be sending home homework folders for students to have math facts and books on their level to read and complete at home. This reading and practicing math at home is essential to their academic growth in both reading and writing skills! The books are simple and we have even included some example questions for families to make it easier on y’all! The picture above is an example of the cover letter for September which includes reminders for important events and school holidays.
We will send home the folders along with needed materials Monday-Thursday afternoons. Students have been instructed on how to take care of, complete, and bring back their SIGNED form the next morning. We make this a HUGE deal to them because their work at home really effects their growth in school! After successful completion of the homework, a parent or guardian will initial the calendar on the folder. At the end of the month, if the student has enough initials for the days, they will get to participate in the monthly reward! Monthly reward will include sweet treats, free time, extra recess, lunch with the teacher, etc.! We love to celebrate our hard workers and they have so much fun building responsibility in this way.
Please let me know if you have any questions about our new folders! Happy Reading!! Love, Mrs. Bing & Ms. Collins
