HOMEWORK

STUDENTS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR WRITING THEIR HOMEWORK IN THEIR AGENDA BOOKS EVERY SINGLE DAY.

HOMEWORK IS NOT GRADED, BUT IT DOES COUNT TOWARDS THEIR CITIZENSHIP/PARTICIPATION GRADE. PLEASE ENCOURAGE YOUR CHILD TO COMPLETE HOMEWORK TO THE BEST OF HIS/HER ABILITY. HOMEWORK IS DESIGNED TO BE A REVIEW OF SCHOOL WORK AND LESSONS LEARNED. COMPLETING HOMEWORK IS THE CHILD'S RESPONSIBILITY AND OWNING THAT RESPONSIBILITY HELPS MAKE THEM BETTER CITIZENS. HOMEWORK IS DUE THE NEXT SCHOOL DAY UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED. STUDENTS WHO ARE ABSENT HAVE AS MANY DAYS TO COMPLETE THEIR MISSED HOMEWORK AS THEY HAD AWAY FROM SCHOOL. EXAMPLE: IF A STUDENT WAS ABSENT 2 DAYS, HE/SHE WOULD HAVE 2 DAYS TO COMPLETE AND TURN IN THE HOMEWORK. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

MATH: ** STANDING HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT FOR MATH EVERYDAY IS TO PRACTICE MULTIPLICATION, DIVISION, ADDITION, AND SUBTRACTION SKILLS. STUDENTS SHOULD WORK ON THESE TO STRENGTHEN FLUENCY. I RECOMMEND WWW.COOLMATH.COM, WWW.KHANACADEMY.COM, AND WWW.ZEARN.ORG. PLEASE TAKE SOME TIME TO REVIEW WITH THEM. THEY TEST THEIR FLUENCY 3 TIMES A WEEK IN CLASS BUT STILL NEED TO PRACTICE AT HOME. 1 MINUTE DRILLS WORK BEST. THANK YOU!!

READING: ** STANDING HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT FOR READING EVERYDAY IS TO READ FOR AT LEAST 30 MINUTES. THIS IS GREAT PRACTICE AND HELPS STUDENTS STRENGTHEN VOCAB AND COMPREHENSION SKILLS. **

SCIENCE: ** STANDING HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT FOR SCIENCE EVERYDAY IS TO EXPLORE AND BE ACTIVE (WITH PARENT PERMISSION). CHECK OUT YOUR YARD OR THE LOCAL PARK, AND TAKE NOTICE OF THE WORLD, ANIMALS, BUGS, AND PLANTS AROUND YOU. DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING WITHOUT AN ADULT'S PERMISSION.**
