Homework Expectation:

Students are expected to complete 2 passed lessons on their individualized iReady Learning Path weekly. Students have from Monday to Sunday night before midnight to complete this weekly homework assignment. I would encourage your child to spend some time on iReady every night for homework to help best manage the homework expectation. Students are also encouraged to be using their headphones and have paper or a whiteboard to aid in answering questions. 

Occasionally, students will be assigned a worksheet or homework posted in google classroom. Students will be informed in class of this homework and it will be posted in the astronomers homework calendar, as well.

Supplies Needed:

Students are expected to come to class each day with a charged chromebook and headphones. Students need a pencil with a good eraser every day. We utilize highlighters, dry erase markers, and whiteboard erasers in our classroom daily. Students may bring their own, but I also have a classroom set they have access to. Students only need a math folder for my class, I do not require a notebook.

Math Notebook & Math Workbook:

Students will be provided a 6th grade IReady math workbook. We will use this book daily in our class. In order to supplement and differentiate the material, students will be utilizing a math notebook. In this folder we provide formulas, graphic organizers, definitions, and more. This notebook is a great resource for students as we tackle the 6th grade content. We ask that these materials stay in the math classroom daily, unless a student is finishing an assignment or is using the material to study. 

Google Classroom

Students will be invited to join google classroom the first week of school. We use google classroom for math very sporadically. Family newsletters from the workbook will be posted in google classroom. I will often post a variety of resources in there, as well. We will typically use google classroom in class for different digital activities. Our biggest online resource currently is the iReady program which is accessible on each students launchpad. Upcoming quizzes and tests will be posted on the team calendar rather than on google classroom.
