We have a crazy week ahead of us and soon the homework load will increase a bit, but its January nowand we need to be raising the bar to meet the first grade expectations set for this time of year. Spacethe homework out and do a bit each night. Second grade teachers like to assign homework and makeit due the next morning, so its a good idea now to get into the habit of setting aside time each nightThe School-Home Literacy Links page will be sent next Friday and is a great way to practice severaskills at once: reading, comprehension, decoding, and writing. We will be taking our District WritingTest soon and this page will help us demonstrate the skills we need to master in order to beSecond-Grade-Ready!
