Poem/Homework - Week of September 12th - We Pay Attention!

Starting this week your child will be bringing home their yellow poetry books. Please read through the poem/song with your child and then work WITH THEM (don't do it for them!) to complete the homework. Often, the homework will say to "write a sentence" and at this age a sentence can look like any number of things! Some students may be able to only write their names, others may only write a few random letters, most JKs may only be able to make a few lines and squiggles, while some SKs may be ready to try writing sentences!  Whatever stage your child is at, please let them try the work on their own. After they have attempted a picture and sentence on their own, have your child tell you what their picture is all about and then you can write their ideas down for them, if you'd like. Our first poem/homework for the week of September 12th is called We Pay Attention!
