| Please check periodically for homework updates.
Please remember to review the contents in your child's homework folder
together daily. We will be discussing the importance of responsibility this
year and would love the extra reinforcement at home. Make sure your child
packs and unpacks his/her backpack and takes on other responsibilities such
as packing a snack or lunch. Homework is a reflection on the individual.
Please make sure work is completed and in your child's best handwriting.
Children who do not complete work will have to complete it at a later date.
STUDENTS: Any work that goes home with a "fix and return" stamp must be
corrected and handed in the next school day. Before handing in any
assignment, please check to make sure it is your best work and that your
name is visible.
Math Homework will be sent home Monday-Thursday. Home Links should be
checked and returned each day. Math addition and subtraction facts should
be memorized. Mad Minutes will be
given every now and then to test for fact power.
A writing journal will be sent home. Students will be asked to complete two
journal entries a week. Some days there will be a specific writing
assignment for your child to complete. Most days your child will have an
opportunity to free write. However, for all writing assignments, certain
criteria must be followed. This information can be found in the front of the
writing journal.
There will be additional homework sent home for reinforcement of the social
studies program one to two times a week.
ILA homework will be sent home 3-4 times a week.
Your child will become familiar with the homework routine rather quickly and
I will keep you informed of my expectations. I believe in open communication
between parents and teachers.
