Homework

Homework will not begin until a few weeks after school has began and routines have been established. Homework will consist of a weekly packet broken into a nightly schedule. However, we give a week to return the book so it can be done according to your schedule. The packet will combine Math and Language Art skills for the week. Reading decodable books that are sent home will also be part of homework. Additionally, a composition book with a new poem each week will be sent home with activities.

We do keep track of who returns their homework, in the past this has been a part of our Kindergarten progress report. Homework is meant to be done at home with the parent reinforcing the skills taught at school. Showing that you value homework and see it as a priority will set a precedent for your child throughout their schooling.

All homework packets and poetry notebooks need to be returned on Fridays. Please also make sure you check purple folders every night and return them to school daily. As the school year moves on you should be practicing sight words NIGHTLY with your child. It is essential for reading fluency.
