Homework

Students are given their homework packets on Monday and are due Friday. There are exceptions, for example, if Monday was a holiday or an assessment day, the packet is given on Tuesday. Homework is due Friday, except if there is no school then it is due on Thursday.

Establishing a homework routine and location is very important. We are trying to create independent and responsible citizens. The homework packet is the students responsibility to keep track of. I have asked students to keep their homework folder in their backpack at all times with their homework in it. When it's homework time in your household students get their homework out, work on it, put it back in the folder, and back into their backpack. That way no one will forget on Friday!

A typical week of homework may include the following: Reading log and some math. For the first few weeks we only give a reading log just to get everyone back in the routine of reading, bringing their homework and folders back and forth in their back packs.
