Homework small medium large Parents please make homework a top priority by scheduling 30-40 minutes each day for your child to study word sorts, multiplication/division facts, and to complete classwork and homework. Children need routine and structure to be successful. Before your child begins his/her nightly assignments, be sure to check his/her notebook and agenda book. Rationale for assigning Homework: Homework in my class will usually consist of any classwork that was not completed in class. Occasionally assignments will be made strictly for HOMEwork and no time will be given in class to complete. Homework is important because it teaches responsibility and helps students develop good study habits. In addition, homework helps to reinforce lessons that have been learned in class, and helps prepare students for upcoming lessons and tests. Homework Expectations: Usually, homework should not take more than 40 minutes a night. During that time they should also be independently reading or shared reading (reading to a parent or sibling), studying for upcoming tests or quizzes, and studying math facts. Please encourage your child to do his/her best work. Homework should be neat. All written work should be done in pencil. Homework will not be accepted if written in pen, crayon, marker, etc.. It also should not be torn from a spiral notebook. When completing homework on notebook paper the heading should include name, subject, date on the right hand side of the page and the page number of the assignment on the top line on the left. When is Homework Assigned? Majority of the time homework will be assigned Monday-Thursday. Although homework is not assigned on Friday, your child may have classwork or special projects that need to be completed. Students should study word sorts, math facts, and read on a daily basis outside of their assigned work. This does not have to take long but it can significantly help your child's performance If for some reason no homework is assigned on a designated school night, your child should still spend some time reading or studying, and please have them share their completed classwork/homework with you. What If A Student Doesn't Know the Homework Assignment: Homework assignments are written on the board each day, and ample time is given to write down the assignment. In addition, I always go over the homework assignment and remind the students what they need to bring home toward the end of the day. There is NO EXCUSE for a student not knowing the homework assignment, or for not having the proper supplies at home to complete it. Exceptions For Turning in Homework Late: If for some reason, due to sickness or an emergency, a student is unable to complete homework please send a note explaining the reason. Students will always be able to turn in work late due to an excused absence but NOT for unexcused absences. If homework is late due to a lack of materials or because your child didn't write down the assignment it is unexcusable, but I know that no one is perfect. Please write me a note if a problem such as this arises. If this happens repetitively remember, this will hurt your child in the long run because it sends the message that it is okay not to pay attention when we are going over homework. When students face the consequences of their actions it helps to prepare them to become more responsible, independent workers in the future.
