2022-2023 HOMEWORK
We do not believe in assigning excessive homework. The homework that is assigned is meaningful and, for the average student, manageable. We feel it is important that it is completed as assigned so that students learn a sense of accountability. Homework is due every morning at 8:30am, Monday – Friday. Your support and help is deeply appreciated.
SUMMER HOMEWORK: All returning students were assigned review work to be completed over the summer. Students were expected to bring in their completed assignments on the first day of school. Should this homework not have been completed, students must complete it by the end of the first week.
MATH: Students will be given a Math Practice folder. Math practice starts August 12th, with the first lesson due Monday, August 15th.
For each lesson, students will complete the following:
READING: Students are to read at least 20 minutes per night (no comic books or graphic novels unless teacher approved). Reading homework may include reading for research projects or the Art History Fair. Once a student completes a book, they may do a book report/project, present a book talk, or answer literature questions. Should the reading or assignments not be completed, students will read during recess or class time. If there are recurring times when this is not completed, the teacher will contact the parent.
PARENT SIGNATURES: Both the reading log and math lesson should be reviewed by parents and signed after corrections are made by the student. Solutions Manuals will be provided for the math practice homework.
LONG-TERM PROJECTS: Long term projects are broken down into steps, each with its own due date and corresponding point values. Meeting these due dates are essential for the completion of the project since it is completed over time. Points will be deducted for each missed due date. This year’s end project is the Art History Fair, which will be held in the second semester. The packet explaining requirements and expectations will be sent home late first semester.
