Homework

I'm impressed with how many kiddos have been bringing back their take-home books!  How exciting.  They are becoming better readers every single time they read!  Keep it up, Firsties!  You may have noticed I sent home a reading packet last week.  I plan to continue with these packets to improve reading comprehension and offer an additional opportunity for students to read. I will send them home early in the week and would like to have them back by Friday of that same week.  As much as I prefer not to have homework at this age I'm noticing the class needs the practice.  When I spoke to the children about this extra practice almost every kid said they liked the idea! I encourage them to take ownership of their work and take the initiative to get it down and bring it back independently. They will need your signature, though. Thanks for your help!
