The purpose of homework at the first grade level is threefold: 1.

To begin to understand the responsibility to practice and get ready for
the next day and return to school prepared THE NEXT DAY 3.
To develop the nightly reading habit Every day of homework, the assignment will be discussed in
class. Your child is
responsible for listening carefully to be able to follow directions. There will be times when your child may need your assistance
to dictate spelling words or reinforce the directions.
We would encourage you to provide a quiet space free of
distractions and limit the working time to approximately 20 minutes.
Work should be done in pencil with attention to best quality of
writing and with the addition of color where appropriate.
Please have a box of crayons, scissors, pencils and a glue stick
available to your child.
There will be occasions when you have a special family event or
your child is ill and a missed night is easily made up the following day.
