HOMEWORK
Individualized Homework
Due to the varying levels of each student, at times homework will be individualized in order to meet their specific needs.
Homework Planner
Your child will be given a planner that is to be used on a daily basis. The purpose is to communicate homework between home & school. A parent signature is required each night.

4. NIGHTLY HOMEWORK Reading - study vocabulary words and sight words`
NIGHTLY HOMEWORK

Math
-addition and subtraction facts
-a very short math worksheet will be assigned most nights Monday-Thursday
Spelling-A pre-test will be given the first day of each week. Spelling homework is not assigned. I feel as a parent you know how much your child needs to study their spelling words. I will send home spelling practice suggestions at the beginning of the year.

Classroom Snacks: Students are not permitted to bring snacks from home to be consumed in the classroom.
Special School Events: If a special school event includes the use of food, it is the classroom teacher's responsibility to work with the building administration, school nurse, parents, and activity organizer to provide for any appropriate allergy-related restrictions. A listing of suggested food choices for classroom celebrations and special events is included in the District snack list; available under food services on the SV website.
Birthday Recognition: If a parent chooses to provide the entire class with a birthday treat, the treat must be non-edible. The list below provides some examples of the types of activities that may be used to celebrate a student on their birthday.
Lunch with a special person
Donate a favorite book to the classroom library after reading it aloud to the class
Donate a game to the classroom for indoor recess
Children can bring in non-edible treats (stickers, notepads, pencils, journals, packet of seeds and flower pots, bubbles, coloring books, crayons, side walk chalk, etc.)
