Homework
Your child will bring home a yellow folder & homework planner. I ask that you check these each night as they will be used as daily communication between home and school. Please make sure to initial the planner each night. This lets me know you saw any notes I may have sent and that I have seen anything you may have sent to school.

*If you have a note, snack money or something to send in to school, please label it in a zip loc bag & send it in your child's "yellow folder".

**Your child's planner should last all year. Please help your child treat their planner with respect by not drawing on it or eating near it. This is a wonderful tool to help your child become a responsible and organized student. Thank you in advance! :)

Homework is meant to provide extra practice of a specific skill that has been taught in school. It gives parents/guardians an insight into how their child approaches and completes assignments. It teaches early responsibility. It ties home and school together.

Homework should not take longer than 15- 20 minutes. If an assignment becomes grueling and causes frustration, please stop and jot me a note in the planner. I will then review this particular skill with your child in class the following day!
**If your child receives an "Uh-OH!" note, that means they did not complete the assigned work in the time provided during class time, and it will need to be completed for homework.
