Our homework schedule will usually follow this pattern... Mondays- Sign and return spelling quiz book and copy your new words neatly into your planner Tuesdays- Math worksheet Wednesdays- Read the book that comes home with a family member (usually a reread for fluency, but at times it might be an appropriate enrichment/extensional book of your child's choosing Thursdays- Spelling page and study for the spelling test Fridays-Usually no homework Throughout the year, there will also be a few long-term research assignments. Occasionally, a student has difficulty with time management at school and does not complete classwork on time. These assignments will be sent home clearly marked "Finish for HW". Please help your child to finish and return the assignment the next day. Sometimes, if a child is out of the room working with another teacher, I may send home a page "FYI" or "just for fun". This is usually at the child's request, and is not homework. You may wish to save it for a rainy day. Homework should be completed and returned the next day. In addition, it is your child's responsibility to ask you to check the homework and sign his/her planner every day. Students earn homework passes and other prizes for handing in homework on time. Please contact me if homework becomes frustrating or overwhelming.
