Homework

Homework

Homework

What kind of homework will be assigned?
Usually, there will be two assignments given each night, a math assignment, something else (lang. arts, science, soc. studies…), and to read independently for 20 minutes. Each night’s assignments should take no more than 50-60 minutes to complete (this includes reading time). If your child is struggling, please send a note or contact his/her teacher explaining what was attempted and where the questions or problem came up.

 

What is the purpose of Homework?

Homework is for practice of skills we are learning, study for skills to be assessed, and to promote good study habits for the future.

How will I know what has been assigned for homework?
The homework for each night is posted in the classroom. It is the responsibility of each third grader to copy their homework assignments on their homework chart.
 
What happens when my child does not complete an assignment?

Students who do not complete homework will be sent to Homework Club during recess. Please remember filling out and signing the reading chart is also considered homework.
