Homework

Grade 2 Homework
Week of May 24-28, 2010

In an effort to have the Grade 2 students ready for the style of Grade 3 homework next year, I am structuring the weekly homework for the remainder of the school year in a similar pattern to what will be the future expectation. It will come home every Monday from now on until the end of the school year. As today is Tuesday, Monday on this sheet is a reference and an indication of how the rest of the weeks will run. I hope you find it helpful. Thank you!

Suggested Breakdown of Weekly Work
Monday
1. Reading – 10 minutes per night; record on log - please bring it in TOMORROW (every Tuesday) to be checked.
2. Journal Entry – 1 or more sentences – please date - please bring it in TOMORROW (every Tuesday) to be checked)
3. Spelling Lesson 25 – p. 144 and 145 (spelling test Thursday)

NOTE: Students should spend about 20 minutes only per night on homework plus the additional 10 minutes for reading. Please let me know via the communication book if students are following the above pattern but it is taking significantly more than 20 minutes per night.
