HOMEWORK IS IMPORTANT

Homework is an important tool for reinforcing skills and concepts taught in the classroom. It also develops personal responsibility and helps lend structure to the daily routine. Every Monday through Thursday, students will have homework. You do not need to check for individual problems, but get into the habit of looking over the paper together to ensure it’s complete and neat, then make sure it gets back into the correct side of the folder. Have your child do this with you (don’t do it for him/her) to reinforce responsible habits. Homework sheets are ditributed each Monday, possibly Friday to get a head start, along with spelling and vocabulary lists.
