Homework for October 15
Due Date: Wednesday, October 21, 2009
Don’t forget the field trip on Friday to Magness Tree Farm. We’ll be outdoors all day, so appropriate clothing for possible rain will be necessary!
Assignments:
Family Writing:
Choose a field trip that you’ve been on that you could share one part of it in writing. Write a personal narrative about it. Tell what happened and how you felt.
Writing together encourages your child to see you having fun with writing, and allows you an opportunity to spend time with your child while he/she learns.
Literacy:
Language arts homework, “Night Lights”, is similar in format and skills to the Oregon third grade reading assessment. It will benefit your child greatly to complete it each week. PLEASE feel free to help your child with it, even on some of the reading, if necessary.
Read 30 minutes at home each day. The bookmark needs to be filled out and returned.
Extra Things with Different Due Dates:
Math:
Your child needs to continue working on memorizing the addition facts and begin working on subtraction facts.
*A few students are still weak in counting money. Help at home with real money would be helpful.
*Continue playing “Close to 100”. Please play this often at home. It will take a lot of practice! Using a 100 chart could be helpful in adding.
*Continue playing the math game I sent home. “Plus-Minus-Stay the Same” at least once a week.
