2012 - 2013 SCHOOL YEAR
Homework: NO homework this week. Have a great winter break. We will be back in January.
How parents can help:
Read with your child at least once a week.
Work on fluency by having your child read aloud to you.
Check on understanding of what is read by asking your child questions about the section you did together.
Review the weekly word of the week which can be found in the agenda book.
Help your child come to school well rested and ready to learn.
Talk to your child about reading and why it is important.
