A lot of people ask me if Sabrina has homework.
She does, although it is modified (mostly by the special education teacher).
The plan is that she gets homework packet on Friday for the following week.
She gets a spelling/sight word list and a Language Arts modified story. Typically the gen ed language arts book gets modified for her, but right now her teacher is piloting a couple different LA programs, so it’s a bit tricky. Her special ed teacher uses a special ed language arts curriculum with her when she’s in the Learning Center for 30 minutes a day.
Pre-teaching is very important for Sabrina. She isn’t interested in something when it’s first introduced, so by introducing some of these concepts at home before they’re introduced at school, it raises her interest level and ability to participate. I highly recommend it as a way to get the child as ready for learning as possible.
Now it’s your turn – share some of your own modified homework examples, either on the blog or on the Facebook page!
