Please remember that for credit on the daily assignments, I do need to receive a daily picture of the spelling, writing and math work done for each day of the week. Your child should be doing the spelling practice, watching the story online and answering the questions in complete sentences, watching the math video and doing the work as the video goes through and then completing the final challenge problem. This should all be send in daily so I can mark their assignments as completed. They should also be working on Freckle ELA and Math for 15-30 minutes a day in reading/mathematics and completing the assignments, watch the letter videos and the additional math videos for practice.
