This year we will continue sending home reading logs for homework. Your child will be responsible for reading 150 minutes ech week. This reading can be independent, out loud. or reading with someone in the family. Reading logs will be sent home on Tuesday and returned, signed and completed the following Tuesday. The first reading log will be sent home Tuesday August 18th. When a reading log is returned completed and signed, he/she will receive a book buck that can be spent at our school book buck store. Students will also receive two "behavior bucks" for our own classroom store. All time spent reading outside of school will help your child to become a more successful reader in 5th grade.
Your child will also be responsible for 30 minutes of math facts practice each week. Your child will record these on the back of their reading log. Practicing multiplication and division facts will greatly help your child become more successful in math. Your child can practice flashcards, mad minutes, computer games, etc.
