Students will keep a weekly agenda in their binder. Students are responsible for entering their homework assignment each day. All homework assignments are due the next day unless otherwise stated and is expected to be nice and neat. PLEASE remind your child do their work NEATLY, and do not hesitate to have them redo sloppy work.
The purpose of homework is for reinforcement of skills learned in class in order to become proficient, much like the purpose of practicing soccer, baseball, dance, karate, or piano. I do not believe in loading down the kids. Homework is practice of something I have taught them and should be done fairly easily. If you are finding your child is spending way too much time on homework or struggling, please let me know. However, If you are feeling like your child needs more homework..........Read, read, read, practice math facts, or build something, bake something, play a game, help them use their skills in a real world way. This is much more meaningful than more work.
