How much homework will my child have?

Children have a homework project every week. It is given to them 
on Tuesday 
and it is due on Friday. In addition, children have a reading log 
and are 
expected to read for 15 minutes every night. We will begin 
spelling homework 
later in the year.

What is a Bag of Books?

Each week, beginning in late September, your child will bring 
home a bag 
with 6 books in it. You and your child may read these book 
throughout the 
week. At the end of the week, your child will return the bag of 
books and 
take home another bag of books. This continues until late May.
