Homework for Wednesday, April 27, 2011
I’m sending this home early this week because of “Bring Your Child to Work Day” and no school on Friday.
Due Date: Wednesday, May 4, 2011
Dear Parents:
This week, Miss LaMarche began teaching the Salem history unit. There will be a list of home projects, for students to choose from, that will be coming home next week.
Assignments—I can’t emphasize enough how important the weekly writing assignment is! Please be sure your child does it!
Child (with parent assistance) Writing: If you could change places with another person for a whole day, who would you change places with and why would you choose that person?
Write a topic sentence, 3-6 detail sentences, and a conclusion.
Working and 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, “Forest Mammals” 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.
Don’t forget to help your child to remember to read 30 minutes each evening and to bring the RAH (Read at Home) folder back to school each day. If you don’t have time to read one evening, please still sign the card with 0 minutes written in.
Math: All students will be retaking the math state assessment next week. (It was postponed from this week, due to students participating in “Take Your Child to Work Day” on the day we were scheduled to take it!) Please use the list of vocabulary words, that I sent home last week, that may be on the state assessment (I will put the words on our classroom Blog.). We’ve been reviewing the words at school. Please go over the list with your child. There is a website that has most of the word definitions on it. Click on the link “Math Definitions” and “Math Definitions (Harcourt)” on our classroom blog. Students should look up the words they don’t know. Writing definitions and/or pictures will help them to remember.
