HOMEWORK
Homework is a very important part of your child’s education. On Monday through Thursday I usually give two to four assignments. Students should also be reading at least 20 minutes every night. I try not to assign homework on Friday that is due on Monday, but occasionally it is necessary. Students are given time in school to complete some assignments, while others are given to be completed at home. I check work daily and will notify you when homework is not being completed. The homework being given is a reinforcement of the work being done in class. Homework teaches responsibility and helps develop positive study habits.
All assignments are written on the agenda board daily. Students should be copying them down in the morning in their planner. After lunch, I give students time to pack up and remind them to gather all books and materials they need to complete their work at home.
GRADING
Assignments will be graded on a scale from 1-4. For long term projects and writing assignments a rubric will be used.
