Homework Policy
In our class your child
receives individual attention every
minute of every period. This ensures
that he or she learns new ways to
cultivate skills necessary to progress.
Homework is an intricate component
of this process. Homework , not
only reinforces the lessons of the day,
but also requires the student to complete
daily tasks which will foster responsibility.
Parents, please take a few minutes
every night to check that all homework
is complete.
If your child is having difficulty, please write a note
in the pad and we will go over the
lesson again. If we work together I am
sure your child will be very
successful this year!!!
My email address is [email protected]. Please feel free to email with any questions or concerns. I check my email daily and will respond as soon as possible.
**PLEASE NOTE THAT THE HOMEWORK IN THE HOMEWORK PAD IS THE CORRECT HOMEWORK FOR THE NIGHT IN QUESTION. THE CALENDAR IS THE PLANNED HOMEWORK FOR THE WEEK BUT MAY NOT BE ACCURATE BECAUSE OF CHANGES IN SCHEDULES OR OTHER INTERUPTIONS THAT CAN NOT BE HELPED - THANK YOU
Please read with your child every night !!!
Modeling reading and listening to your child read aloud
will help tremendously in your child's reading progress!!!
