Homework for the Week of April 10th

Important Reminders:   Please remember these important reminders on homework and tests:  Summaries are paragraphs that include important things from their story.  They must not include opinions, such as I love this book.  Students take a vocabulary quiz once a week.  There are 20 words and they must know their definitions.  I recommend that the students take home their vocabulary notebooks nightly to study for their quiz.  Notebooks must come back to school the next day.  This week is THEME TESTING WEEKStudents need to concentrate on antonyms and synonyms for the vocabulary this week.  Progress reports will come home as soon as possible.

STAR testing is next week.  Make sure your child gets a good night's rest each night and has a well balanced breakfast.  This will help with their scores!

Spring pictures have gone home.  Please decide if you would like to keep them or not.  You can choose one sheet, or more than one, or none!  If you do not choose to keep the pictures, they must come back.  Also, the sheets you do not want to keep should come back when you return the money in.


Tuesday:  Do a fluency read for one minute aloud, read from a book of your choice for 15 minutes then write a 5 (or more if you choose) sentence summary about what you read, and complete the math page for Chapter 22 Lesson 1.

Wednesday:  Do a fluency read for one minute aloud, read from a book of your choice for 15 minutes then write a 5 (or more if you choose) sentence summary about what you read, and complete the comprehension page.

Thursday:  Do a fluency read for one minute aloud, read from a book of your choice for 15 minutes then write a 5 (or more if you choose) sentence summary about what you read, complete the math page for Chapter 22 Lesson 2, and study for the vocabulary test for Monday!

*Papers that should be turned in on Friday are:  all reading log pages, the fluency paper, and the homework from Thursday night.

Have a great week!
