Homework is DUE FRIDAY morning! __Reading__
 * __//Wrangler Homework Hoedown//__**

>>    **__Spelling__** **__Math__** ****UNFINISHED CLASSWORK and Corrections - Each student will bring home all unfinished class work at the end of each school day. It should be completed and returned the next day. **
 * Sight Words -Read the sight words three times each day. Testing days will be Tuesday-Thursday. I will test students one time each week and highlight the words they know. I will give new words at this time. Please __do not__ write, make any marks or highlight on the cards. If your child has a word ring I have placed it in their folder. This word ring along with their homework folder and books is to come with them to school everyday. //If your child forgets their Sight Word Ring they may miss their opportunity to test for that week.//
 * Books- Each student should read no less than 20 minutes each day. At times you may believe that the reader I have given your child is too easy. This often happens with higher readers. However, I have given this book to them for a specific reason. Most often to increase their comprehension. I will not ask for a reading log. I know that you all know the importance of reading and trust you to monitor this with your student.
 * Students will have leveled books for their reading group (little book)
 * These will be changed 1-2 times per week
 * Students will also have an A. R. Book
 * These books will be changed as your student test out of them. We only have two computers and 28 kids, which means everyone has to wait their turn.
 * Your student will take a pretest every Thursday. These words are directly related to our reading theme of the week. Every student is pretested on the first 12 words on a list of 24. We then correct the list of 12 words. The student circles the words they do not spell correctly with a green ink pen. They then write those words on their PRACTICE LIST. If they misspelled and need to practice less than 12 words from the top 12 words, they then choose additional words from the bottom list of bonus words. Your child can practice their spelling words on the activity sheets provided every Monday. They will be tested every Friday. There will be weeks when we do not have spelling.
 * Math Facts
 * Practice using Math Café on the school website. Flash cards can usually be found at the Dollar Store. Please do not neglect this practice it is very important.
 * Math Facts in a Flash-This can be accessed through Home Connect on the school website. Your student should practice online as often as possible. At home your student can practice but cannot test. Testing is done at school once per week during computer lab.
 * Math Worksheets and A.M. – Your child will have a double sided math page for each day of the week. This Spiral Review/Quick Check page will support the activity we completed in class. They will aslo receive an Accelerated Math packet which they should complete at their own pace. This packet is to be returned when they finish .Once again this is enrichment work that some will complete quickly and others will take more time to complete.
