**Please Note: Homework will be explained in detail at Back to School Night, if you have
questions please ask. Homework will be sent home weekly. I will send homework on Monday afternoon for that week.
There are 4 boxes of homework for the week. (3 on a week with no Monday or Friday). All need
to be completed and turned in on Friday. It does not matter which order the
work is completed, but ideally students are to work on 1 box each night.
All homework will be a review of what is being taught in class.
In addition to nightly homework, students will need to read every night!
We ask that they read 15-20 minutes. PLEASE spend time listening to your child
read. Read to your child as well. You will be modeling good reading strategies such
as fluency and reading with expression, as well as sharing your joy of reading.
Homework Practice Guidelines
Please do not do all homework on one day. Students should complete 1 box each night. |
