Homework


PROCEDURES

Homework will be in the form of a weekly packet.  It comes home on Fridays and is due the following Friday.  3rd grade tried this new homework procedure last year and it worked great.  It allows you and your child to work out your own homework schedule.  We realize that life is hectic and hope that doing homework this way helps. When your child turns in their completed homework they have the chance to play HOMEWORKOPOLY.  The spelling list for the week is attached to the homework packet.  Spelling tests will be given each Friday.  View the Spelling Choices Link.  One of the homework requirements will be to choose one of these activities to do.  This will also be located in the back of the GO BINDER for reference.

In addition to the packet, students will be required to read at home each week.  I encourage students to read or be read to nightly at home.
  
Homework is meant to be a way for your child to INDEPENDANTLY practice skills from class.  Some students may finish quickly while others find it challenging.  Homework is not intended to teach new concepts.  If your child needs additional practice for enrichment or remediation please take advantage of the many links on our class page, as well as activities on the MASTERY CLUB.

CONSEQUENCES:

Students are given the oppotunity to play HOMEWORKOPOLY  if the HW packet is completed correctly and returned on time.  Your child will receive a fine for each page not done. The fines and bonuses are a part of our mini-economy behavior system.
