Homework
Homework Expectations:
Homework assigned will not include new concepts, but rather focus on practicing material learned in class.
Students should not need conceptual assistance from parents at home, although they may need accountability to finish homework in a timely fashion.
Homework is intended to build upon lessons and discussions in class in order to solidify understanding of concepts, not to simply be "busy work" to take time away outside of the classroom.
Students should dedicate time to the assignments, make notes where questions arise, and communicate with me that further instruction is needed.
