Reading
Each night your child should have a book read to him or her. A new library book is checked out to your child each day a book is returned. We also visit the library weekly. Please remind your child to put the book in the backpack nightly. Reading should take place for 15-30 minutes daily. Additionally, every student is expected to independently practice alphabet cards and sight word flashcards everyday.
Math
Children can play on websites from the internet. We have a link of items that we have done in school for your child to access. We are working on number recognition, patterns, identifying set size, and counting skills. (15 minutes twice a week)
Science/Social Studies
Assignments will vary based on topic of study. Total work time should take 20-30 minutes discussion or exploration weekly. These items are more about exposure and building blocks for the future. Currently our class is working on consisentcy of items. Have your child identify hard, soft, bumpy, smooth, hot, and cold items that they touch. See if they can name more textures you have around the home. We are working with the other senses too. Don't be surprised if your child starts stiffing around for sweet tasting snacks after school.
