Homework This Week

I shared good news and bad news with your children yesterday. The good news is that they don't have a math packet again this week. (Don't worry the math packet will return for the week after Thanksgiving… :o) 

The "bad" news is that they do have 2 other assignments:

1. Weekend adventure - The children should write a paragraph about one thing they do this weekend. It should include a topic sentence, and at least 3 specific details. I challenged the children to write about a "seed." A seed is one moment in time - not en entire hockey game - but perhaps one play from the hockey game. 

This assignment is due on Tuesday, November 26.

2. Spelling City - Children have a new assignment on SpellingCity.com. If they did not complete last week's assignment, they now have two. It is important that they complete this assignment. It will help to improve spelling in their writing. 

This assignment is due on Wednesday, November 27. If your child is behind on their assignments, I expect all assignments to be completed before children come back to school on Monday, December 2. 

Thanks for your support in helping your students learn responsibility around homework. This responsibility will help them in years to come.
