First Grade Homework Sheet

Week of Oct. 24, 2011

        This week is the annual Red Ribbon Week!  Please check the schedule of events which went home last Friday for each day’s theme or check the school website!   Of course, if you or your child does not wish to participate in the activity or dress for the day, just have him/her wear the school uniform.

        Please respond to Heather’s letter asking for volunteers for all of the Halloween events.  We need lots of people and donations to make these events successful.  Thank you in advance for all you are doing!

        This Tuesday is the book fair at Barnes and Noble in Redlands.  You can purchase scrip and/or attend the fair at the store to support our school and find lots of excellent reading material for your whole family.  Remember, books make fabulous Christmas gifts!!!

        Speaking of books, I always recommend that every child spends some time every night reading with parents or siblings.  You can take turns with your child; listen to their reading; and reading to them.  This should be a regular activity every night.

        Phonics—“Roundup”; read with parents

Tuesday:  Write Spelling Words List #9 three times each;

        Phonics—“Under the Stars”; practice high frequency words
