Homework
Frequency: includedFeedback: includedDetails: A sheet will be posted to our classroom page at the beginning of each week. This sheet is to be printed (or accessible to look at during class). There will be a new sheet each week and 2 sheets during the last week. These sheets will be sent to the enrolled students before class each week. Please have this handy during class time because we will be referring to it throughout class. After we complete each strategy, students will receive some optional resources that can be used after class is over. Practice at home using each strategy is optional but highly encouraged! During weeks 3 and 4, students will be asked to bring an item from their home to share with the class. More directions will be given at that time.
A handout will be given at the beginning of each week. Please have this handout printed and/or accessible during class each week. I will also be giving an optional list of books that can be used as extra practice at home. Students should also have paper and pencil during class. During the third and fourth weeks, students will be asked to bring an item from home to share with the class.
