Homework Policy
In order to make this the best possible year for your fourth grader I will need your help and support. Homework is usually a reinforcement of skills that have already been taught in the classroom.
Homework helps develop the students’ sense of responsibility and accomplishment. Homework will be assigned Monday through Thursday and occasionally on Friday. It should take approximately 30-40 minutes to complete the assignment in addition to 30 minutes of reading with your child. Homework will be counted as an effort grade which will be reflected on the report card. Each homework assignment will be written on the board every day and will be explained thoroughly. It is the students’ responsibility to copy the assignment on their homework assignment sheet and ask any questions at the time the assignment is given to clear up any confusion.
It is very important that you review your child’s homework for accuracy, but please do not complete your child’s homework for them. The homework assignment sheet is to be signed every night. If you have any questions about the assignment, or any questions or comments in general please write me a note on the back of the homework assignment sheet, and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
