October 19, 2015 Good Afternoon Families, Based on the amount of homework I am receiving back from students and from their responses, I have decided to shift homework some. From now on, students’ homework will primarily focus on word recognition, spelling, grammar, etc. The words I assign will be 3rd grade sight words, words from the text we are reading, subjectrelevant terms. This will help them build their vocabulary and therefore help them become stronger and more fluent readers. They are still expected to read 20 minutes every night. Occasionally, they may receive a passage/ questions, if I feel it is necessary for them to further practice a reading strategy they have learned in class. They will receive a list of 1012 words weekly and will have periodic spelling test on the words. Each night, they will have a different assignment associated with these words.. Students will receive their homework packet every Monday and will turn in their homework packet on Friday. The list of words will be on my website: mm3rdgrade.weebly.com . Thanks for all of your support!
