Homework Clarification

Several parents have had the same question so here is the quickest way to give an answer.

Your child will not need to print anything from the online homework.  I can monitor their progress from my teacher account. Working online with math and spelling  for 10 minutes or so daily will give them a good amount of practice with the skills we are learning in class. The assignments I have set up are geared to keep students busy through all of Chapter 1.  Don’t be concerned about finishing everything. If you have clicked “Done” and want to revisit those assignments, just look in the “Old Assignments” folder and keep working from there. As a bonus, my students will be getting some valuable keyboarding practice. 😀

Enjoy,

Getting Started

It was a short week to start the new school year with, but it was certainly full of activities. I hope the information I provided at Back to School night was helpful and clear.  Please do not hesitate to contact me when you have questions. Together we will make it a great year. I appreciate your enthusiastic support of your second grader.  I am looking forward to working with you all. 

Stay cool this weekend!

Joyfully,
Mrs. Petuya
