ACADEMIC UPDATES

Homework will be posted on our school website on Mondays and will need to be signed and returned to your child's teacher electronically on Fridays by 12 p.m for recording purposes. NO late work will be accepted. Please refer to our First Grade First Semester Syllabus as needed. As a friendly reminder, we do receive a weekly report for completion on all electronic platforms. Homework will now count as a percentage towards grades.

When administering the practice spelling test at home, please ensure that your child is writing in the correct format. Penmanship is very important so practice handwriting daily. Letters should be written in the correct format (tall, short, or long) on the correct part of the lines. Students need to write in all lowercase letters unless it is a proper/specific noun (such as I). Words with improper capitalization and backwards letters will be counted incorrect. We will continue to refer to students to the letter resources that are available on the classroom walls to verify that their letters are going the correct way.
