Family Focus
This year we are taking more of a family focused approach to homework. We believe that spending quality family time is vital in the success of your student. We will provide family friendly, engaging homework activities and assignments. We would love if you would send us pictures of these activities and share them with us.
This weeks Family focus:
We are learning about informational text. Please read aloud a book with your student that falls under this genre and discuss facts and text features located in the story and how they help with understanding the story. Send your teacher a fun fact that you learned about.
