Mrs. Dykstra's Homework & Schoolwork Information
Homework
Homework is generally due every Wednesday. Your child will usually bring home a homework folder on Thursdays. Please keep this at home until the following Wednesday, unless otherwise specified. Your child should read for at least 20 minutes every night. Since you will have already gone over the work, there is no need to send it back. I will not return homework unless there is an issue with something.
Returned Work
Class work is returned regularly. It would be greatly appreciated if you would look over this with your child to discuss any remarks or errors made. This will reinforce the link between home and school. If a mistake was made in the correcting, please kindly bring it to my attention.
Math
We are beginning a new math adoption this year. Your child will need to complete assigned nightly homework from their math book brought home and return the pages weekly in the provided homework folder.
Spelling
Remember to check your Speller's Choice Assignment Sheet. You will need to complete and have a parent sign off for four assignments each week. The sign-off sheet is due with your homework each Wednesday. Don't forget to study your words so you are ready for your weekly Spelling test on Wednesday.
Reading
Don't forget to read at least 20 minutes each night.
P.E.
Your child will attend PE for 45 minutes 2 times each week ont Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11:10-11:55 with Mr. Sundstrom. Please make sure your child is wearing comfortable sneakers on these days. Thank you!
Library and Computers
Each Thursday our class will visit the library and computer lab. Please make sure that your child brings their library book each week to return OR re-check out. Thank you!
