Homework

My homework policy ...

Each Monday, students will be given a homework packet, which is due on Friday morning.  In it students will find a reading page with comprehension questions, a grammar page, and sometimes it will contain a math page. 

The packet will also always contain a spelling contract.  The spelling contract will vary from week to week, as to what is expected, but the students have the opportunity to earn a Spelling grade for the week on homework.  This homework grade is 40 of the 90 points allotted each week. 

Spelling may contain:

  • Stairstep the spelling words:
    for the word chair the student would write:  c     ch    cha    chai    chair
  • Alphabetize the words
  • A crossword puzzle
  • A word search
  • Study with a parent
  • Various other activities

Usually on Monday through Thursday nights students will be given math homework, which is due the following day.

Periodically students will be assigned studying for a science or social studies test.
