Homework

Nightly students will have 30 minutes of homework. During a writing unit, they will work on their writing for 15 minutes which will be either drafting, revising, editing, typing depending where we are in the unit. They will also read for 15 minutes from a book of their choice at their level.

During a writing unit, students will be reading with a partner or a book club or independently. They should keep up with the reading goal set by the group or partnership. If they finish the goal before 30 minutes, they can read a different book or Newsela book.

If they do not finish classwork, on occasion, students will work on social studies packets or projects, Newsela, etc. in place of reading homework.
