Homework Policy & Spelling Homework

Every Monday (or beginning of the week), students will take home a weekly reading log and their spelling words. Students' spelling words are determined by a pretest on Mondays. Students will bring home their Word Work notebooks to record their spelling words on a "My List" they will also receive on Monday. This list will then stay at home for practice and review. Word Work notebooks are to be returned to school the next day. On Tuesday, students will receive a TIC-TAC-TOE board of Word Work activities to choose from for spelling homework. They are to choose 3 activities to complete by Friday. Reading logs and spelling activities are due Fridays. Math homework will be given Monday-Thursday and is practice for concepts learned in class that day. Other homework may be assigned on as-need basis and will be due the next day. Students will be tested on their spelling words on Friday using a partner system.

Students are required to write their assignments in their student planners each day and take home their work before dismissal. Homework travels to and from school in their homework folders. Parents are to sign their child's student planner to indicate that the homework has been completed and checked for accuracy.

 

Reading Logs
Students are expected to read "good-fit" books for a minimum of 10-15 minutes each night of the school week. They are to record what they read and the minutes read on their reading logs which are sent home on Monday. Reading logs are due on Friday (or the last day of the school week) and must be signed by a parent to be considered complete.
