  7. Homework • Homework will go home at the beginning of every week. • Do it how you wish- finish it at once, do it a day at a time. • Homework is due every Friday. • These assignments will ABSOLUTELY prepare your child for his/her tests that week. • Complete the Reading Log

  8. Reading LogHomework • PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! Complete the reading log. • Read to your child or have them read to you for at least 5-15 minutes a day. • Think out-loud with them. Ask questions about what you read. Pause and make predictions in your stories. This will help prepare them for our Cold Reads.

  9. Tests • Cold Reads-These are reading comprehension tests we will take every other week. • Spelling-Every other week. (this could be an easy A!) • English- Every other week • Language/Phonics- Every other week. • Math-Test every week.

  10. Cold Read Test • It will be difficult at first! • Don’t give up! • Here are some study techniques: • Complete the reading log with your child. • Practice reading and recalling information. • Practice reading, recalling, and relocating information. • Think aloud after reading, talk about the characters, the setting, and what they think will happen next. • Your child will do well if YOU read with them at home too! • Complete the Homework.

It is an extra $0.75. If your child wants a juice you need to send either money (labeled for that) or a note with permission. • We eat at 11:05-11:30 You are always welcome to join us.

  13. Common CoreDaily 5 • No, we don’t just play all day…. • The new Common Core teaching standards are keeping us busy, sure 7 hours is a lot, but its tough to squeeze everything in. • We have 5 centers we visit daily *Writing*Word-Work *read to self *read to others *Listening We Love Common Core!!

  14. Daily 5 Centers • Read to self-Students read different genres of books to themselves • Read to others- Students work with a partner to practice their reading skills. • Listening- Students listen to books on CD while following along in their books. • Writing- Students will work with Mrs. Lori to write on different topics daily. • Word Work- Students will practice spelling, strengthening vocabulary, using dictionaries/thesaurs, and more.

  15. Behavior • Each day your child starts off with their clip at “ready to learn”. • Based on the choices they make throughout the day, they can move their clip up or down . • We believe in positive reinforcement. • Your child will be rewarded daily for good choices. • Our last option for negative behavior is parent contact. This could be a “Making Smart Choices” note, phone call, or conference.
