Homework Policy
Students are encouraged to practice Most Common Words (sight words) nightly, reading and writing each one taught. Once per month beginning at the end of September, Students will be assessed on the knowledge of the spelling AND the reading of these words. They will be awarded a chameleon to move up a tree. Once all words have been mastered with reading and writing, their chameleon will reach the top of the tree and they will receive an award for making it to the top of the tree. Students are also encouraged to read nightly.
Make Up Work Policy
Students will have 5 days to complete missing assignments from absences. Most assignments will be completed during a designated time in the classroom. As a reminder, students need a written excuse for each absence. Students are allotted 10 absences per school year. Should a student miss more than the allotted days, parent contact will be made and a conference will be scheduled.
