Homework Extension Ideas

I just finished our first trimester parent teacher conferences this last Friday. The conferences went well and I loved getting to brag about all the gains my first graders have made since the beginning of the year.

Every year there is a very eager parent that asks the question, "How can I challenge my child more at home?" Every year I discuss ideas with parents and make suggestions but I was tickled pink when I found this list of Homework Extension Ideas created by the Teeny Tiny Teacher.

She was so thoughtful in her ideas for all of the subjects. The ideas are well thought out and this page really gives the parents a reference point to come up with challenging homework ideas at home.
