Week of October 19 th -23 rd Home Study Sheet Parents, Below is a list of the homework you can expect to see for your child this week. Please make sure you support your child to complete ALL of their homework every night. In addition to the homework listed below, please begin to work with your child to learn the RED,ORANGE, YELLOW,GREEN high-frequency words by sight and spelling. High frequency words are words we see often in print. Many of these words cannot be sounded out, so kindergarteners will memorize how to read and spell them. Please review them nightly with your child, as this is a very important component of our curriculum. Students are assessed on these words and rewarded with a raindrop on our Kindergarten Rainbow Wall once they master a group of words. Congratulations to those that have received their Red and Orange raindrops!!!!! Review High Frequency Words Nightly!!!
