Dear Parents,
Each week students are given 16
words to study to enhance their vocabulary. I have chosen to test the
students each Monday (unless I tell them otherwise). I do this to
allow more time for students to study.
Learning
vocabulary is very important to understand higher level texts. Please
encourage your child to study a few words each night so they are ready
for their assessment.
On the FCAT there is a section called Words and Phrases which assesses the students on their knowledge of synonyms, antonyms, homophones, and words with multiple meanings.
The students have to learn good habits to be prepared for success. Please
continue to motivate your child to complete their homework and study. If
they are taking too long to complete their assignments, please let me
know. At this point in the year, students should be aware of time
management and my expectations for completing certain tasks.
