Homework in Second Grade...
* is used to help teach your child
responsibility and to reinforce concepts learned in the classroom.
* will ALWAYS be practice
or review of a skill previously taught in the classroom.
* should not take your child longer than
30-40 minutes total each night. If homework is taking your child longer,
please let me know so that we can discuss the problem and brainstorm solutions
together.
* should include studying weekly words
each night.
*includes reading for a minimum of 20
minutes each night (that's 100 minutes per week). A monthly reading log
will be sent home at the beginning of each month. After reading, students
should record required information on the reading log. All reading logs need
to be turned in to Mrs. Vensko on the last school day of the month and will be
reflected in your child's reading grade. Please keep this reading log in your
child's HOBO book (homework section), as I check these often.
* can be found in your child’s H.O.B.O.
binder (homework section).
* is expected to be completed and
returned the following day in the
H.O.B.O. (homework section).

Each student in my class receives a Hobo
homework punch card. I created and ordered these cards on Vista Print.
Students receive a punch on his/her card when homework is turned in on time,
complete, and neat. Sometimes, I give out two punches for an extraordinary
job! When the card is full, Mrs. Vensko will buy you an ice cream from the
cafeteria! Be sure to get your homework turned in! New cards are given out
throughout the year.
