Homework+Policy

=Homework is an important part of your child’s education. It helps reinforce lessons learned during the school day. Homework must be completed daily. Homework will be updated daily on our class website. This year, your child will be writing their homework in their homework planner on a daily basis and placing assignments inside of their Home Folder. Assignments, unless otherwise stated are due the following day. = = = =Your child will also note important dates such as trips, quizzes, exams, etc. in their planners. We recommend checking and signing your child’s homework planner weekly to acknowledge awareness of assignments, if you feel the need to do so. In addition, please check your child’s Home Folder for important notices nightly. The Home Folder is designated as a communication folder between school and home. = = = =Independent research/projects are another essential component of fifth grade. Students will be given ample time to complete these projects throughout the year. Homework assignments may involve students logging into a computer/tablet to use the internet for homework and studying purposes. If for any reason, your child does not have daily or weekly internet access, please inform us. = = = =Together we can help develop important time management skills and level of independence that the children need to be successful in Middle School! :) = = = =Thank you in advance for your support! We know that together we can make this a very successful year! =
