Hi Sandy! I'm not sure exactly what you mean by reading comprehension pages. Are you referring to the 1 min. fluency stories? Those aren't included in this set. If you look at the top of the post you'll see a grid that breaks down what homework I do. Since I only send 3 of these home a week 100 is enough for me.

Thanks Lori! I would, but I just don't know 1st graders or their core well enough to do for them.

Thanks for the support Tresa! I wish I could offer this for 3rd grade, but I only have experience with 2nd graders.

There are many parents who feel that a teacher isn't doing her job if she doesn't assign homework. There's no way to make everyone happy. The only thing I can do as a teacher is to figure out what I feel is best for my students based on current research and experience. I feel that the work I've created meets both goals.

Hi Natalie! I'm glad this looks useful for your team. Our team binds it into a book so it's just all taken care of for the year. There's a cover in the pdf files if that's useful for you. I use this as review and informal assessment. I test the material covered in the morning work in other subject areas (time telling test, place value test, etc.). But I'm interested in hearing more about your DOL quizzes if you're willing to fill me in.

Thanks for your kinds words, Kate. Sorry the blog was being finicky for you! I'm so glad you like the morning work. I hope you find it useful.

Thanks for the question, Amy! We just do one a day. When they're done they put a crayon in to mark the page and put it to the side until we're ready to correct it as a class. Kids who are finished read from the tubs at their tables. I've seen another teacher who has the first 4 or 5 finishers show him their work and then, if they're correct, they get a special pen to go and check the work of their peers as they finish. I haven't tried it but it worked well in his class.

Thanks for the question Laura. I just don't have the background experience in other grade levels to be able to pull this together for anything besides 2nd.

Thanks so much Emily! I'm glad you think so!
