Please also check your child's planner each night for daily assignments and upcoming tests, quizzes, and other important information.  Some assignments may have already been completed in class by your child.

Nightly homework always includes the following:
- 10 minutes practicing math skills/facts using your best study method
USE: https://www.ixl.com/signin/puyallup 
- 5 minutes reviewing vocab/spelling list using your best study method
USE: www.wordlywise3000.com AND your workbook
- 30+ minutes of reading from good fit book (record in RAH log!)
- EVERY FRIDAY: Parent Signature in Planner

Friday Folders

Most Fridays your child will be sent home with a Friday Folder that will come back and forth from school to home all year. This is a very important weekly home/school communication tool; the corrected work and flyers are yours to keep at home, but the bottom portion of the Weekly Report needs to be signed and returned to school on Monday morning inside the empty Friday Folder.
