There are 3 homework days worth of work to complete. During your three home learning days please work with your child to complete the homework sheets sent home. You will find links to copies of each item sent home below in the appropriate section in case you misplace the homework. Make sure you send the completed homework back to school for me to mark and return to you so we can all help your child progress in their learning.

Math Tasks (Worksheets)
Try your best to complete the numeracy worksheets for this week. Each one works on a different kind of skill.
Worksheets:
Daily Math (week 9) - I've included all the days and the brain stretch at homework. You could do Monday and Tuesday for Day 1, Wednesday and Thursday for Day 2, and Friday and Brain Stretch for Day 3. Each day works on different skills, so please try to work on all of the sheets this week. Don't forget to use your cheat sheets if needed.
Decomposing Numbers - Complete the 4 sheets to practice decomposing numbers (breaking them down into their parts). Decomposing is figuring out what numbers can go together to make the larger number. This helps students understand that there are different ways to compose and decompose numbers. For example, you can break up 10 into 1 and 9, 2 and 8, 3 and 7, 4 and 6, and 5 and 5. This help reinforce skills of both adding and subtracting.

LITERACY
Reading
Read for at least 20 minutes each day. Keep track in your learning log and fill out the Home Reading program sheet. Don't forget to let me know how easy/difficult the books are so I can make sure to give you the right level. Students can also be reading on Epic Books (linked on their Chromebooks) between the hours of 7am and 4pm on weekdays, and for up to 2 hours outside of those times. Go to getepic.com/students and put in the class code bgx6631. Students are also set up on RAZ kids where they can practice books at their level (teacher login is klesowski0).

Students can be practicing their words at home by writing them, sorting them, doing practice tests, and playing games on Spelling City.
Cohort A is working with the set of words sent home last week (Sort 30 and 2).
Cohort B took home a new set of words this week as we just had our spelling test. They can work on the next sort at home and show me what they know at school next week (Sorts 31 and 11).
