Homework

Children should be reading each night for at least 20 minutes.  Books they 
read should be at their ability level. Children should also read a variety of 
different genres as well.

It is also important for the students to practice their writing each night.  
Students could write in journals, make a shopping list, or fill in the family 
calendar.

Children should also practice math facts (add, subtract, multiply and 
divide).  These facts should become automatic.
