Homework
Frequency: 1-2 per weekFeedback: as neededDetails: I will assign review homework which will be to read the passages and words that we read in class. Other homework might be to complete word work or sentence writing that we did not complete in class. This homework is optional, but for best results, learners should review the work to help reinforce the lesson.Assessment
Frequency: includedDetails: I will assess the needs of the learner during the first class, using an informal reading and spelling assessment. I will repeat this assessment every 6-8 weeks.
This class can support all learners. I support unique learning needs by providing a calm learning environment, activities that reflect the child's interests, activities that incorporate movement, and other supports as necessary.
For each class, please have the following: 1. a pencil and eraser 2. a small white board with a white board marker and eraser 3. the worksheet (will be posted prior to class) 4. if possible, a binder or folder to keep worksheets, plus a few sheets of lined paper (or a notebook)
