Homework will include (but is not limited to) Dreambox for at least 10 minutes per night for students in grades K-2 and at least 15 minutes per night for students in grades 3-5. Additional optional homework related to current objectives in any subject may be given per teacher discretion.
All homework must reflect relevant tasks which students can complete at their current individual instructional level.
Teachers will log into Dreambox at least twice weekly to review student progress, will regularly monitor student completion of all other homework assignments, and will communicate with students/families to encourage consistent engagement.
Homework MAY be reviewed by teachers during class time in connection with planned instruction, but homework review should not encompass significant (>5 minutes) instructional time during any academic block.
Grades will not be taken on daily homework; however, completion of homework will be factored in when reporting a student’s work habit grade.
Homework will not be given as punishment or behavior consequence.
Parents are encouraged to communicate regularly with teachers regarding their child’s progress on homework and share extenuating circumstances when necessary.
