Homework is assigned every Monday-Thursday evening, usually in Reading and Math. The reading homework Monday-Thursday is 30 minutes of independent reading of an appropriate 4th grade chapter book. The reading is to be recorded on the quarterly reading log each night. Your child should be provide a short retelling of what he/she has read, and you are to evaluate and sign off on the reading log each night. Math homework varies from the Homework and Remembering Book (orange and yellow Math Expressions soft covered book) and various supplemental worksheets. I do not post homework on the website; each child is responsible for writing it down in his/her green assignment notebook (agenda), taking all materials needed home with them at the end of the day, and returning everything to school the next day in his/her homework folder. Wake County expectations are that "on average" each 4th grader spends around 45 minutes to an hour each evening working on homework. If your student goes over that time and is "stumped" or having frustrations with a particular assignment, please write me a note and I will work with your child during the following day's TRAIL time. Thank you in advance for reinforcing the importance of being an organized, responsible, and hardworking student with your child!
