To prepare your child for 5th grade I will follow a progressive program with turning in homework. At the first quarter, you child may work on it after morning work and then sit out for 10 minutes of recess. After I see progression we will follow a "If you don't turn it in, you will sit out of recess!" The students will receive a combination packet that will consist of various skills to work on. This will be due on Thursdays. Spelling assessments will be given every other Friday. I Take Home Contracts and papers will be sent home every Monday. Please sign and return on Tuesdays. Students may also have a few math reinforcement activities to do as well throughout the week. Please help your child by helping them to be accountable and begin letting them organize their time and work efforts independently.
