Homework
Homework is given in both of my classes reading and home economics Monday -Friday. Homework is due the next day. If your child forgets to complete or bring the homework it will be accepted late. I will not be reminding students about missing homework. It is their Job to look at the posted grades on the web site or on the board in class to see what they are missing. Students are required to write the name of the homework in their calendar. The homework for Friday is for the parent/guardian to sign the calendar. The purpose of signing the calendar is for you, the parent/guardian to be a part of their child’s learning experience by creating a dialogue with your child about the homework and to check to see if they have completed the homework correctly and they put it back in their notebook/folder to take back to school the next day. While checking the calendar, it should have the name of page of the homework written for each day of the week or a page number or a title. An example for reading would be comprehension pg 2. I will use abbreviations to allow the important information to fit in the space. compreh.pg 2. An example for home economics would be Vegetables #1 or veg. #1. Daily homework should not take longer than 30 min for each class. The purpose of homework is to give your child practice in what they learned and how to manage responsibility by turning in their completed homework.
