Today I gave a homework folder that needs to come back daily.
In has first project attached: The Wilfred Gordon paper :  The Star is born will be given at Back to School day 8am on August 27th.  They are not due for a while, but kids can turn it in early and get it out of the way. Especially since I am not giving homework till next week. I loved how a child screamed out, " I can do that tonight." That is the SPIRIT!




THE HOME JOURNAL HAS JOURNAL PROMPTS ON THE FIRST PAGE>>>Use a prompt IF YOUR CHILD CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING TO WRITE ABOUT... TRY NOT TO USE ANY OF THEM BECAUSE THEY CAN WRITE ABOUT THEIR DAY AT SCHOOL, Karate class, OR ABOUT SOCCER PRACTICE, ETC.


Homework this week
Fill in reading log daily
Do a journal writing (Journals will be checked on Fridays) Do not correct the journals, just give them reminders about the capital letters and omission of periods. Remind them not to use words: awesome, good, great, cool, like, love, and super.
WE NEED DETAILS, DETAILS, DETAILS.

Practice organizing ideas with your child.  Today When asked what they did over their summer break.. some kids said they didn't do anything over vacation. Help them tell a story and organize their thoughts.. On Fridays after lunch we have sharing time.  They can tell a story or share an object that they are excited about. Have them practice by looking in the mirror and you should be able to hear them in the other room projecting their voice:)

Please have your child read aloud to you at least three times a week for at least 10 min. (even from another room to pick up the volume)
Listen to see if they run through the periods or read a question or exclamation sentence correctly.

​Thank you for your support!
